Steve Harris Precision Bass

[Thunderitter]

There are a few post on this subject right now but here's a question:

I always thought that his Blue Precision was a refinish of his original White Precision that had the West Ham Sticker on it and that the signature model doesn't really represent an actual bass he plays - more of a hybrid with his input?

Any hardcore Steve H fans out there that can either confirm or correct me?

You've got it backwards, son. His white one used to be the blue one.

Less of the son, laddie!!

Seriously though, thanks for that!

All I need now is confirmation that the signature bass isn't a copy of an actual bass he plays.

When Harris agreed to do a signature model with Fender, he wanted it to sport the West Ham colors, hence the wine-colored pickguard. Not close enough to his original blue sparkle with mirror pickguard IMO, and with the basswood body, I was never interested in his sig model.

On the DVD that came with AMOLAD Steve says the white bass has been 5 different colors. White, black, blue, checkered, and back to white as you see currently.

It is the bass that all IM albums were recorded with.

If you see him with a P bass, it's probably the same one. If memory serves, it was white before it was blue. Most people remember it being blue, which is probably why they did the sig in blue. As mentioned, it's not LPB, but it's got a lot of flake in it.
