Members steve_man Posted July 30, 2015 Members Share Posted July 30, 2015 After dropping my bass (that I've had since college), I went in to my local shop to have it checked out. Intonation was out of whack, and needed some adjustment. I wandered into the bass playing room, and noticed an interesting bass on the wall. Now, I'm a sucker for sunburst, and for P-basses, so this one caught my eye. It was a consignment 2006 60th Anniv. Fender P-Bass... and it still had the plastic on the guard! Picked it up and tried it out, and it played incredibly well! Talked to the manager, and he gave me the price... which was pretty good. Talked him down another $75. Then he brought out the case... such a cool case! Silver tolex, diamond logo... hang tags still in there, plus a tuner and a strap. Also has the S1 switching system, which is great! Loving it!

Phil O'Keefe Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 That thing looks like it's never been played. Do you plan on playing it, or did you buy it as a collector's piece? Either way, congrats on the very cool bass / case score! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought it to play. I've always wanted an American Fender Bass, and I have been playing a lot of bass over the past few months. I'll take care of it, but I'm gonna pull the plastic off the pick guard and use it for real! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
