Fender Classic Series 50s Precision P-Bass Fiesta Red + Bag 07506
Description
This is a 2012 Fender Classic Series 50s Precision Bass in Fiesta Red finish. Weight = 8lbs, 3oz. Comes with black gig bag that has some wear but should help keep it safe. This is already 13 years vintage, so woods are getting aged.
Condition
Cosmetically, the guitar looks really good. I took pics of some of the small imperfections mostly around the edges. Frets are in great condition. All stock, no mods.
Features
— Alder body w/ C-shape maple neck
— Vintage-style split-coil pickups
— Gold anodized pickguard, Reverse-wind tulip tuners
Sound & Playability
This bass looks really sweet with the vintage Fiesta Red color and gold pickguard. It plays like a vintage dream with the big all maple neck and vintage size frets. Just real fun to play, good looking and great sounding bass. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below. Thanks!
Guitar Setup
Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, clean and oil fingerboard. 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. We do a basic setup since setup is highly subjective you may want to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier anyway. Thanks!
Packing
Search "How to Pack a Guitar + Hot Girls" on YouTube for a video showing how I pack. I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have been doing this 15 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. You can also read my packing blog post on my StillKickinMusic website. If you Google "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
