1976 Fender Precision Bass in Sunburst finish With Original Case

Absolutely stunning and very rare custom candy Apple Red finish for this 58 years old Fender Precision bass. Light and resonant , with a sublime neck profile and the perfect Pbass tone, this bass is just a work of art. Nitro finish, Brazilian Rosewood fretboard and black bobbins pickups ( all features from the early preCBS days, but 68 was a transition year at Fender and they used all the leftovers, making some of the best instruments ever made). Let’s not forget those gracious and rare Oval tuners aka Lollipop or Paddle, which were only available on the early 1968 Pbasses. Beside a new nut and a replaced screw on one of tuners, this instrument is completely original, with untouched solder joints, both covers still on and comes inside the original Stamford case. One for players and collectors, super rare and a superb player. Partial trade always welcome

Such a nice wood grain on this 48 years old Fender Pbass, made in USA and with incredible Mojo.

Great tone and sustain , with medium – low action and frets still in good condition.

The original natural finish has aged beautifully and the genuine wear is really nice.

All the hardware is original, as well as the pots and pickups.

Comes with a Fender Hard Case.

Great player and stunning instrument

One of the nicest example from the first generation of the Fender Precision Bass. With a graciously aged butterscotch finish, it’s just perfection and plays beautifully as you would expect from one of these 51-54 Pbasses. Detlef Schmidt is the author of what’s considered the most accurate book about the first generation of the Precision Bass, he collected as many serial numbers as he could and this one is featured on his list. The neck has a great patina with the classic finish wear at the back, which is common to these early 40s and 50s Fender instruments. Flat head screw on tuners, neckplate and pick guard as supposed for these. Original covers still there and came with a tweed case that looks like may have been externally modified but looks all original inside, although is hard to confirm. Bass is completely original, with pots perfectly working as well as the black bobbin pickup and the original paper capacitor. It came in with a reissue pickup but the original 1954 black bobbin (which sounds amazing) was inside the tweed case and is now back with the bass and rest of the wiring is untouched. The finish has a gorgeous checking and looks like they patched a couple of extra screws holes (possibly a thumb rest) but they are barely noticeable. Bass is very light and resonant with an incredible sustain due to the string through the body. The pencil dates are unfortunately not legible anymore but the serial of this bass is present on the bridge and can be found on Detlef Schmidt’s book. These early models are becoming incredibly hard to come by and this one is a great example.

Here is the, the Holy Grail of Bass: the 1964 Fender Precision Bass.

This one is in unreal condition, making it a spectacular piece, either for players or collector.

All original down to the very last screw , comes with the rare original white tolex case, the 1964 leather strap and the original jack cable.

Original frets in amazing condition, action nice and low, all original electronic and solder joints untouched.

The pick guard shows no signs of shrinkage and the original bridge and pickup covers are still on.

Beside a mark on the side and a couple of tiny spots this bass is absolutely immaculate.

Here is your chance to own the rolls Royce of bass .
