Highlights:

Gorgeous and rare finish for this 47 years old Fender Precision Bass, all original and with a very comfortable weight, especially for a late 70s one.
Sitting at 4.3Kg, makes it a great gigging instrument.
The finish is called wine red as well as translucent red and only lasted for a couple of years before it got discontinued.
This bass is 100% original and has a beautiful deep and growly tone, as you would expect from a vintage Pbass.
The original covers are still on the bass.

Comes inside the vintage Fender Black tolex case.
