1971 Fender Precision Bass (USA, Olympic White, HSC)
Lightweight, beautiful looking Precision from 1971. Great looking original tortoiseshell guard, original tuners, strap pins, jack and capacitor. Olympic White has aged and checked in a really lovely way, and now a lovely cream colour, with plenty of wear. Neck has seen a refret at some point and there is some pitting on the frets. There has been overspray over the neck. Bridge saddles are replacements as well as 2 of the intonation screws. There are 2 extra screw holes in the guard and a plugged thumb rest nearish the bridge. Why, your guess is as good as mine. Pickup is a 1974 P Bass pickup and the pots have been replaced. Brass nut (for more sustain ya dig) installed. It's a trip to play and you best believe it sounds the biz too. Being lightweight, it feels very comfortable to play and resonant too. Bit of a weapon. Made in the USA and comes with a cool old blue lined 60s black wooden case. SN 319809 Weight: 3.95kgs
