    For Sale Only - Late 70's Japanese "stone logo" Fernandes precision with an EMG GZR Pickup. This is like having a Fender Roadworn, but with an “A” width (Jazz) neck. The bass features an aged Oly White finish on ash body, authentic roadworn marks, skunk-striped maple neck, 1.5" jazz bass nut width and weighs 9.4 pounds. Definitely a player’s bass, this has a tight neck pocket, excellent balance and plays great. Currently strung with flats. I understand these basses were not sold in the US, and could only be imported from Japan. Neck profile is not chunky, but not ultra slim either – call it a nice, comfortable medium. As can be seen in the pics, there are two sticker shadows from the finish aging, but they don’t stand out all that much. I’ve had Fender Roadworn P basses, and this one will easily stand up to those or any other P bass. Comes with padded gig bag. Smoke-free, pet-free environment. This bass is so good that I've owned it twice, but with some other recent additions, I've got to make room. Will sell and ship in the CONUS only for $475.

    Bump for an excellent bass. The neck on this is unlike any other I've ever come across. Well worth the money.

    As of right now, I'm leaning toward keeping this. It's just a great P bass!

    Yes, I agree. I'm leaving this up for now, but I won't have a problem keeping it either.

    Wish I had the scratch I would take this in a heartbeat. Who knows if some of my stuff sells I will jump on it.
