Play bass like Martin and Will for less than ?300

[Michael Heatley]

Anyone want to buy a sunburst Fender Precision? Just not quite as old as theirs...

I bought it last year cos I was going to have to sell my beloved '71 example, but have decided I can't do the deed. Even so, I have done gigs with this rather than 'old faithful', so playable is it.

So if anyone's in the market for a (just) sub-?300 Fender then let me know and I'll send further details/pics.

I've had a good feel of Michael's instrument and can well recommend it. It's a bit longer than mine, but a bit thinner under the ridge. Nice smooth easy action. Responds to slapping, picking, or other device, e.g. pliers.

No wonder he needed a sit down that time.

I'm just jealous, really.

You're just playing into his hands..

?300 to sound like Martin, thought you could do it cheaper than that..

Okay, I'll subtract the cost of three strings, Singh!

So you'd be prepared to take off your G string for Dan?

I've got a Fender Strap. If I mumble it enough times, someone will mishear me and be really impressed.
