My one and only, and what a beautiful bass she is at that. Pristine condition for being around 50 years old.

Just added this 30” scale bass to my stable! Quite unique (poplar/quilted maple body, maple neck, morado fb)…
New (used) bass day! Fender Precision Special. Arrived yesterday and I already changed the neck to a Mighty Mite fretless.
Came with a fretted "Fender Precision Bass Special" neck. Nothing wrong with it, I just have enough (!) fretted basses. Here is a picture of "before."
Just messaged you.
Which one? Fretted or fretless? The fretted may have been snagged already! You can have the fretless if you can pry it from my cold dead hands...^^^jonesing for that neck^^^
Added this stately Upton fellow to my life, and boy am I happy I did. I have a long way to go learning to play it well, but I rarely walk by it without stopping to try for a bit.

A stately collection - I don't play 6-string guitar ... but the "other two" are ones I would love to play.
Not me...I just know Ramonesfan59 likes those necks. I was pointing up ^^^ to his post lol.
You lost a headstock. I recommend you keep that axe away from your other basses!Well, I've sold the 1979 Roadster, and kind of felt I was going to go ahead with just two basses. Thing is yesterday I decided against just keeping two, and got me another one. For a fraction of the Ibanez' cost, mind you. You can see it down in the middle. It's a nice headless (my very first one) that was made by Terra Avstralis Guitars, far down in Santiago de Chile, in South America. You can have a look at the guitars and basses they create at tavstralis.com or their FB page. So far I am loving it, and next week I will be installing a set of Entwistle Jazz bass pickups instead the stock ones.
You all have a good weekend!

I know it’s in good hands until we figure a meet up.
I just watched a really great video on bass bridges. I was really impressed, so I'm passing it along.
Let me know which one you think is best. After watching, I bought a Fender Hi Mass for my fretless.
