1978 Fender Precision Bass in Black finish With Original Hard Case – Rare Birdseye Maple Neck

The M Series handmade bass guitars are where it all started for Stonefield® and they are now our highest spec’d instruments. Handcrafted in our New Zealand workshop, an M Series build begins by incorporating marine and aircraft grade laminates into a remarkably light weight yet very strong through-body core with a 34-inch scale length. From that point on, the array of woods and custom options are vast for M Series basses. Three-piece wooden bindings grace all M Series fingerboards, the bodies are created from a core of Fijian salusalu and an amazing array of topwood choices and a hand rubbed oil finish turns these boutique bass guitars into works of art. State of the art passive electronics with High, Mid and PRESENCE controls (all that control, no batteries required), floating wooden bridges and the remarkable Tomm Stanley™ Tuning System are all standard features on and M Series bass.

Here is the, the Holy Grail of Bass: a stunning 1963 Fender Precision Bass.

This one is in great condition, with a spectacular tone and feel , great for players or any collector.

All hardware and electronic is completely original , with the legendary  black bobbin pickups and pots dated 49th week of 1963.

The bass has been in restored by the one and only Jeff Mallia,  who put new frets , touched up and polished the original finish and oiled the back of the neck to give it a smoother feel.

The original tort pickguard is absolutely stunning  and the original bridge and pickup covers are still on.

The neck profile is amongst the best I have experienced and the bass is light as a feather.
