That’s a sweet looking bass. As irony would have it, I have something of a twin on the way. I’ll post some photos in the near future.
Grats! Rock it as good as it looks.

Did you change the bridge?

Your number is 60
Just a re-post of the Club rules since it's been awhile, and some folks may not be aware of them.
I’ve already done full posts so I won’t do that again, but are the back of the hadstocks again.
May I have a number, please.

That is simply amazing! Was that ever a color offered by Fender? Outstanding with a great selection of features.
Heres a c/p from the description of my bass. It was custom ordered by Bizarre Guitar out of reno. They are some cool dudes there, have purchased 3 basses from them. It was a special lime green, they had my jazz/precision and a precision made with that color. Makes me think of some hotwheels cars i had in the 70's, here are the specs:
The 2017 Postmodern Precision Jazz Bass® is elegantly designed with a reappraisal of modern assumptions. A thoroughly contemporary combination of Fender's two most time-honored basses, it has a lightweight alder Precision Bass body with a comfortably contoured heel, a quartersawn maple Jazz Bass neck with a finely sculpted '60s "U" profile, a 7.25"-radius "round-laminated" rosewood fingerboard with 20 medium jumbo frets, and a seismic '63 Precision bass split single-coil pickup with a vintage-style chrome cover.
Other premium features include a three-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, Custom Shop string-through-body RSD bridge, American Deluxe tuning machines and “Stealth” A-string retainer, Schaller® strap locks and Fender “F” logo engraved neck plate. Available only in Olympic White, Dakota Red and Three-Color Sunburst Finishes Normally, this one is RARE RARE RARE... new “Journeyman” Relic® lacquer finishes, which imparts the appearance of years of aging and light use without heavy wear and tear. Includes black textured vinyl hard-shell case

Beauty! Yeah, he posts on Instagram all the time. If you follow him you'll see what he's working on before it's released.
I kept looking at this one and wondering if it sounded like my other J bass but better. My FCS P basses were improvements over the others, so why not. I certainly liked the look. There was something about the super-aged Daphne Blue and the gold hardware that wasn’t so sparkly as new gold hardware. Well, the tone did not disappoint. It is a clear improvement over my other J basses. The finish is also incredible, but equally difficult to get photos to do it justice.

I randomly stumbled across this 2013 CS Precision last weekend and picked it up! It’s surprisingly light and very snappy. I dig the chunky neck and med jumbo frets. It sounds amazing and looks pretty cool too...
