FENDER CLASSIC SERIES 50s PRECISION BASS Sunburst / Gold + Covers Nice! 41219
50s Classic Series P-bass--very nice condition!
Description
This is a Fender Classic Series 50s Precision Bass in sunburst finish. The bass is in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. Very special look: previous owner went Goldfinger on it and all hardware is gold--including cool, retro-look ashtray bridge cover and pickup cover as well as "F" Limited Edition gold neck plate! Tuners upgraded to USA F-stamped style. Neck and frets very clean condition. Minor edge marks and scuffs on body. I'd estimate an 8/10 condition. Other features include thin frets, all maple neck, reverse tulip tuners, and gold anodized pickguard. This bass has style points for days. Won't find another like it. Weight is 9 pounds, 2 ounces. No case. I do a full cleaning and setup on all guitars. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
My setup on guitars 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. I spray out any pots that are noisy. I 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. I don't claim to be a trained luthier, but I'm able to set guitars/basses for a reasonable out-of-box experience and have had very few complaints. If you're looking for the perfect setup on a used guitar, please expect to take it to a trained luthier who is familiar with your individual playing style and preferences. ps: basses get the same setup minus the new strings. 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 10 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 "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
