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.

1976 Fender Precision Bass in Original Natural finish With Original Hard Case

Highlights:

Really nice wood grain for this 1976 Fender Precision Bass.

This 49 years old stunner is very light and makes the perfect player without breaking the bank.

Has been played but it’s still all original and retain the natural factory finish.

Frets were quite worn so it had a professional regret and has no buzz and a nice low action now.

Like most of the natural finished fender from this era , a fair bit of the clear coat peeled but the undercoat and sealant are still intact and in good condition and had some clear poly touch up.

The pickguard retains the original sticker with serial matching the headstock one.

Body and neck stamped armenta which is consider one of the best fender workers of his time.

Pots and pickups dated 1976 with untouched solder joints.

Overall a great instrument with a solid B profile neck and a marvellous tone and a very light and comfortable weight.

Comes with original vintage Fender hard case

PRICE DROPPED – 1991 Fender Jazz Plus Bass in white Finish with OHSC

Highlights:

Impeccable condition for this 34 years old American made Fender Jazz Bass.

The neck is straight with a great low action, good weight and a much wider tone due to the stacked tone pot.

This version of the jazz bass only lasted 3 years and is known as “longhorn” or “boner” due to the longer upper horn to balance the weight as the short one has been cut deeper to access all the frets on the neck.

1977 GIBSON THUNDERBIRD BICENTENNIAL BASS IN SUNBURST FINISH WITH ORIGINAL CASE

Highlights:
Great condition for this rare Gibson US made 1977 Thunderbird Bass from the limited Bicentennial edition. These basses were only produced form 1976 to 1979 and less than 2000 were made, according to Gibson. This one is all original and its surprisingly light with a phenomenal sustain and such an incredible tone. The neck is slim and comfortable and action is nice and low. Frets are in good condition and everything works as it should. The original alnico pickup are just magic and the high output is quite amazing considering they are nearly 50 old. Strap pin has been moved and original screw hole professionally filled but that’s all. The original Black tolex hard case is in great nick too with all the original latches working as they should . One for collectors and players.

price dropped – 1983 WARWICK STREAMER STAGE I BASS – SERIAL 103 -3.5 KG

Highlights:

A real gem and a must have for any Warwick enthusiast, this 41 years old Streamer is one of the early “paddle headstock” ones with the original design, before the german company change the look of it after having issues with Stuart Spector. Only the first 300 streamer made came out with the paddle headstock and after the first 150, Warwick added ”licensed by Spector” on the trussrod cover to avoid issues with the American Brand. The serial number on this one is 103, and has a phenomenal neck and weight (3.5kg), making it super comfortable to play and the original EMG pickups have a growl that would make the crowd rattle their teeth.
