Fender Dee Dee Ramone Artist Series Signature Precision Bass 2015 + bag & book Olympic White 85540

What it Is
Dee Dee Ramone (may he rest in peace) was one of the greatest rock bassists to ever grace the stage. You're looking a RARE 2015 Dee Dee Precision bass in near perfect collectible condition. If you like a low slung P-bass for pure rock & roll, you can't do much better than a bass modeled after Dee Dee's own.

Condition
Olympic white with C-shape maple neck, thin frets, and Dee Dee's signature on the headstock. Doesn't get much better than that. Beautiful shape. Looks like someone bought this and hardly played it. Most people would class this as "mint" but I prefer to be conservative, just in case there's some minor scuff somewhere. Comes in original black gig bag and very importantly has the collectible photo book that came from the factory. You could pack this away and open back up in 20 years and probably sell for a fortune.

Playability
This is the holy grail for a Dee Dee Ramone fan. Plays great all over the neck. No issues. Big P-bass sound. Not many of these floating around due to a very limited run. Grab it while you can. Weight is 8 pounds, 9 ounces. Please all questions BEFORE BUYING. If you have any concerns about condition, contact me and we'll set up an in-hand description. Will come set up and ready to play. Thanks for looking!

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. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. 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.
