    NBD: 1984 - 1987 Fender Power J-Bass Special

    I've never posted my NBDs before, and there have been quite a few NBDs since I joined in 2019. I'm not sure why, but I guess I didn't feel that they were anything that was really special, but also there has been a fair amount of "churn" in the last 2 years. I'd find a bass that I thought was...

    NBD: 1983 Squier Precision

    Pulled the neck off this morning. This bass is definitely "Fender Inside" Check the tag at the end of the neck pocket: The date on the neck concurs: I did some reading today, and the first instruments from FujiGen started to reach the US in early 1983.

    NBD: 1983 Squier Precision

    @DirkP thanks for that. It matches my understanding of that bit of Fender history. I went digging through my guitar/ bass books and I couldn’t find it in any of them. However there are some folks that believe that those early years of production in Japan were another “golden age” in the saga...

    NBD: 1983 Squier Precision

    That mojo might just come from the fact that the neck, pickups, and bridge align properly. I bought a Mexican J body and the bridge was way off kilter. There have been a number of Geddy Lee signature models that have shipped that way. Dave’s World of Stuff a couple of videos where he shows how...

    NBD: 1983 Squier Precision

    I needed to raise the pickups and the original “foam rubber” has probably dried deteriorated, so I had a good excuse to take a look. Here are some pictures. I used surgical tubing on the screws to prop up the pickups.

    NBD: 1983 Squier Precision

    Actually Friday was NBD but this is the first chance I've had to post. This bass is in immaculate condition and I got a excellent deal. The bass plays very well, better than any other Fender that I've played and the first Fender where I liked the pickups.
