    Default F/S - 'bitsa' 'Fender' Precision, sonic blue, relic'd

    Not having much luck selling the other bits and pieces I need to get rid of to keep the car on the road, so this is having to go on the block against my better judgement! Made from a Mighty Mite neck with a very well-done 60s-style F*nder logo, an alder (I think) sonic blue Sue Ryder body, genuine Mex Fender pickup and an off-white scratchplate - it's this one as far as I know (in fact, I'm sure it is) http://basschat.co.uk/topic/144819-f..._fromsearch__1 but it came to me in bits without 'plate or electronics so I've done it up myself.



    It had a few dinks when I got it so I've 'reliced' it - to my eyes it looks great and the removal of the slightly over-thick finish on the forearm contour actually makes it more comfortable to play as well. I'll get some better pictures later on today and also have the scratchplate off to see what the electronics are (I'm pretty sure I put proper quality in there but again I can't be 100%).

    Some quality bits involved to make a bass easily comparable in quality to a Mex or even Jap Fender for my money, so I'm looking for around £220 for this - I'm based in South Birmingham but shall be around South Staffs sometime this week if you get hold of me early enough!

    Too bad I'm not near enough to have a go. Certainly looks interesting.
