I have to say Deacon John is my favorite of the Precision guys, overall.

I like Jeff Berlin's earlier modded Precision playing. I'm mentioning him more for name than anything. His Dean sounds even cooler, which is odd.

The "complete" Precision man musta been Duck Dunn, though. The pipe, the stone simple lines...he was born for the Fender.

70's Will Lee, Jamerso, Willie Weeks, Chuck Rainey....a lot more....

 

[GRAHAM SG1]

I quite like Bruce Foxton and JJ Burnel

Ralphe Armstrong

In his early MO days, I recall Armstrong using a Jazz with a fretless P-bass neck....& a Maestro Brassmaster pedal.

Steve Harris of Iron Maiden and ME!!!
