Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
While the reverse of this combination (Precision body and Jazz neck) is certainly the more popular, something had to happen to all those Precision necks and Jazz bodies! And this bass feautres, quite possibly, the best Precision neck we've ever laid hands on! Just wide and deep enough to allow you to really dig in while maintaining an easy travel up the length of the neck, that bit of extra space (and extra mass) makes this bass feel and sound huge. The non-original bridge pickup has been lightly relic'd to a perfect match and sounds right at home next the original neck pickup. You won't believe how good this bass feels until its in your hands and you'll never want to let it go.
