Post subject: | Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt Precision |
As some of you may remember I've been itching for the impossible vintage Fender for over 12 years. And it's finally about to happen! However, it's just stupid crazy expensive. So I must sacrifice my CS P-bass to justify it. This is just a heads up post to which I'll add more detail later. When I have time I'll list it on ebay (maybe over the weekend hopefully). Everyone here is getting a heads up. Some basics for now: I'm asking $2750. All original stock Excellent condition Masterbuilt in '97 by Masterbuilder Gene Baker in the John Page era CS Sunburst/Tort Birdseye Maple Rosewood fretboard Alder original Fender case black tolex 4-string string-thru bridge (all original Fender hardware; nickel everywhere) lefty of course!!! In the process of locating my pics. They may already be here someplace in a different forum, can't remember right now. Feel free to request more info. Bass is located in Nashville. More later... |

I exchanged emails with KOA about a year ago just to say hi and see how he's doing. I believe his life shifted to other priorities besides music and online music forums so I don't think he's participated here in a while. Good guy though. I recall him wanting to sell his CS P-Bass because he had his eye on a jazz bass. Either he sold the P and got the jazz or decided to stick with the P. I'm going to move this thread to FS:Sold to avoid further confusion. |

All the PM notifications he's been getting sent to the email on his account are bouncing back to me. Best I can say is see if the PM you sent him gets read and responded to at some point. |

I'm back. Sorry for the delay. Life happens! It is what it is! The dog (actually I have a cat) ate my homework & I lost my p/w (true) I will return very soon to bring closure to this thread. Right now I'm simply thrilled there's functioning memory cells to recall the p/w. I was *thiiiiiis* close to registering again under the cryptic name "KingOfAmps2". I hesitated because maybe it should be "KingOfAmps II" to better match my crown and royal persona Once a Lefty always a Lefty! |

By lefty standards that is, so like 3 or 4 serious offers as I recall. It ended up going to a very cool dude up in Canada who flew in to tennessee to pick it up in person which was great and a HUGE stress reliever. buyer & seller very happy. so yes it sold and sorry to leave everyone hanging for so long. I hate it when that happens it's lame. Apologies. |
