1975 Fender Precision in 3 tone Sunburst
You will be hard pushed to find a 75 Precision with the colours as vibrant as this one with no fading
So how is this so you may ask, well it was sprayed over in nitro black in the late seventies and luckily
whoever done it did not rub down the original finish.
When I got it I was able to see the original finish below the black where you would rest your arm so I
painstakingly removed the black a bit at a time and was able to save the original finish, as you can see it
turned out pretty good and leaving the marks that the checked black finish had made which looks pretty cool
The maple neck has the usual flaking of the varnish on the side of the board, not uncommon. This has been
gently rubbed down on the side to flatten it out so you wont feel the roughness on the fretting hand, the back is
as smooth and easy to play, sort of a satin finish
Frets are in good condition with plenty of life left
Tuners turn nice and smoothly
Nut width 40mm
Truss rod turns both ways with ease
Good decent action with some room to lower if needed
Weight is just under 4.6Kg's
Pots are dated 74, pickups dated 75
The scratchguard is a period correct replacement, original had been replaced when it was sprayed
Just the bridge cover
Currently strung with flats, probably explains the condition of the frets
The bass has been loved and played as can be seen by the neck, no damage to the body
Hopefully I have covered everything but fire away if you have any questions
