Precision body
I'm sort of at a point with a Precision project of mine where I'm deciding to use the body I have or get one from Warmoth. My body appears to be a mid-70's plywood knockoff that's not quite the exact shape of a Fender; it's close, but a standard pickguard won't fit. A Warmoth would be a definite upgrade, and probably what I end up with, but I figured it couldn't hurt to find out if there were other alternatives. BTW, I have a 2nd Precision body, but is a bit smaller than a standard P; it might very well be a mid-80's Squier medium scale body. Anyway, it won't fit my neck without routing, so I'll probably just sell it.

Re: Precision body
Hi Danomite,
I've got a MIJ Fender sunburst P body, no hardware, electronics or pick guard that was a project that I didn't start & am looking to unload it & am interested in your 2nd, downsized p body so maybe we can do a trade of sorts. I don't know what wood mine is but I'd guess basswood but will see if I can find the original invoice to clarify. Only prob is I'm in Japan so using USPS is the cheapest option. If your interested, let me know. Cheers, Glen

Re: Precision body
Basswood is probably right. I'm definitely interested. This body I have is black, has the w/b/w pickguard and screws, and a set of chrome knobs that all appear to be original. The wood looks like basswood to me, which is consistent with mid-80's MIJ Squier stuff. I can give you pics if you'd like. I'd like to see pics of your body, too.

Re: Precision body
A few more for you. BTW, I couldn't find the original description from when I bought it off Yahoo auctions about 3 yrs ago, they don't seem to keep them in a file as eBay does, so I guess it's basswood, from memory.

I was thinking the same thing, but being the new guy, didn't want to mention it...
