Description (More pics below)
This is a beautiful 60th Anniversary Edition 2011 Fender American Special Precision Bass in Sunburst finish with tortoise pickguard. Weight is a very comfortable 8lbs, 12oz.
Condition
Cosmetically the bass is in good condition. No dings or deep scratches. The neck and frets are in great shape, and it plays really smooth. There are light players scuffs on back of bass and pickguard but they don't show up in pictures (I tried). In addition there are screw holes on either side of the bridge because previous owner used a bridge cover.
Features
— Alder body, all maple neck
— 9.5" radius, slim C neck w/ med-jumbo frets
— Alnico P pickups with Greasebucket tone circuit
Sound & Playability
These American Special P basses have “goldilocks” specs with modern C neck with satin back that really make them a joy to play. The Greasebucket circuit lets you roll off highs without becoming overly boomy. They are also easy on the back at sub-9-pound weight, so they’re easy to handle. Classic vintage look with the sunburst/tortoise. Comes with Fender gigbag. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below. FREE FedEx Ground in USA. Int’l contact for quote. Full specs at bottom and in gallery!
International
Please note, I ship to USA and Canada only on this site. On eBay I ship worldwide with eBay International, which has the best pricing. cheers
Recent Review:
"Guitar was packed perfectly for shipping. Everything arrived exactly as described. A lot of care and attention was put into the setup (intonation is perfect). Seller was nice enough to include some extras. Excellent seller! Thank you so much!"

Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!
