Hi Bass friends, as so many of you know, it's hard to give up something THIS sexy, but it gets unaffordable to try to keep every bass... so difficult decisions must occasionally be made. What you're looking at here is an early 90’s Fender FujiGen Japan Precision bass body with what I think are Seymour Duncan Hot Precision and Jazz pickups, paired with a sweet old Warmoth P-bass neck. The neck consists of a flame/birdseye maple neck shaft with an ebony fretboard. I'm pretty sure its reinforcement rods are the standard steel ones. The neck profile is relatively thin compared to my preferred baseball bat thickness Warmoth P necks. I very recently had this neck entirely refretted with 6150 fretwire by a local legend luthier who also married the neck and body to each other. Doing so required filling in its previous screw holes and redrilling to properly fit this beautiful body's neck pocket. Truss rod access is at the neck's heel, so the neck must be removed to make adjustments. Fortunately, the reinforcement rods within Warmoth necks make them quite stable. In my personal experience, the Warmoth necks I've owned rarely needed neck adjustments... certainly much less often than a typical Fender bass neck. The brass nut has been kept intact. I really like the tone with both pickups on or with the Precision pickup soloed, and I found a burpy sweet spot that I love while experimenting with the bridge pickup wide open with the tone knob at about 30% and the neck pickup dialed in just a little to where the sound thickens up nicely while retaining a pleasing burp with really nice bite.
I'm so glad to have found that tone lurking within, because just soloing the bridge pickup with the tone off wasn't delivering the proper burp. It's currently strung with .045-.105 Dunlop Robert Trujillo Nickel Wound bass strings. A basic gig bag is included. I recently brought the bass to the post office to have it weighed on their sensitive scale, and the guy at the counter said the bass weighs 10 lbs 1 oz, but that was with the bridge cover on, and the neck cover off. I've lowered this to the rock-bottom price of $625 plus economical Pirateship shipping to your area. Paypal and Venmo both work, but connecting in person in Scranton, PA would be even better! 
Thanks as always for taking a looksee, and I wish you a wonderful day filled with amazing bass tone!
