1960 Fender Precision Bass in Sunburst finish – Brazilian Rosewood Slab Fretboard – the holy grail
$14,950.00
1960 Fender Precision Bass from the best era of Fender.
This bass is a phenomenal player, sitting at 3.8 kg of weight and with a tone and a feel that cannot be replicated by any custom shop or reissue, this is the real deal.
The coveted Brazilian rosewood slab board only lasted from 1959 to 1962 when it got replaced by the veneer one.
This instrument had a full refret , new nut and a complete refinish but every part of the bass is genuine , from the pickups, to the pots, to the hardware.
The original black bobbins pickup sounds amazing as it should and one side has been rewound at some point.
pots are dated 47th week of 1959.
Neck is dated 5/60 and body is dated 11/59, quite common with fender those days, cause they were ramping up production at a very fast pace.
I have had many precbs basses in here but this one is one of the best I have played so far, with a perfect tone and a great sustain.
Comes with a new hard case

1994 US Ernie Ball Musicman Sterling Bass in Mint Condition With Original Case
Another bass from my personal time machine. This Musicman Sterling Bass is an absolute stunner . Not to be confused with the Asian Musicman Sterling sub brand , this is the original USA Sterling model and it’s based on the stingray, but with a thinner neck and more tonal options. Perfect, not one mark or scuff equipped with the sought after original Flea high mass bridge with mutes. Gorgeous Birdseye maple neck and the sunburst finish is just spot on. Comes with the rare short tolex case which was only available for the first few months of production of this American Musicman Ernie Ball model. A great bass, as a player or collector piece. Renowned for its slightly smaller body and neck profile, the Sterling 4 string bass boasts a big sound. Nine volt active 3 band EQ preamp, 3 position pickup selector switch, and a ceramic humbucker with hum canceling phantom coil come standard, equipping the Sterling to cut through any mix. The optional addition of a pickup in the neck position adds even more versatility to this innovative bass. The Sterling delivers comfort, functionality, and the precision craftsmanship and attention to detail you’ve come to expect from Ernie Ball Music Man.

1977 Fender Precision Bass in Original Natural finish
Very nice condition Fender Precision Bass, made in 1977 in the US. This bass has a really nice neck profile , not too heavy sitting at 4.4kg and has a really nice growl, classic of this Fender era . All original , just had some copper shielding applied inside the electronic cavity to get a rid of any sort of hum but it’s just copper tape , so easy to remove (I wouldn’t as it’s an improvement and doesn’t devalue it). Frets in good condition and trussrod moves smooth left and right with zero issues. Action in low with no buzz and the original pots and pickups works like new.
