Fender Precision Deluxe Bass (Active) for Sale £720

I am offering one of my bass guitars for sale.It is a dark blue Fender Precision Deluxe and is in near perfect condition. It adds a little more flexibility than the standard Precision capabilities (being active) and is a pleasure to play as the neck is similar to a Jazz bass (for those of us with smaller hands!)I am selling due to "thinning-out" my collection and need a little more space - guitars should be played, not stored in cases.
