Fender Precision Bass 1970 Sunburst Hold FB - *SOLD*

Fender Precision Bass 1970 Definitely not a case queen, in fact I don’t think it’s ever lived in a case! This has been used and abused like all good basses should be. The paint is cracked, split and crackled, it’s been a gigging machine. Original apart from CTS pots, the originals have been replaced. The wiring is the original cloth wiring. Regarding the bridge, it is the original bridge with the correct slot headed adjustment screws added, as were the rusty bridge screws. So, to clarify, it’s 98% original for those that are super interested. Pick ups stamped and dated correctly. Truss rod moves both ways, it’s not maxed out but it’s not flush either however the action is low and amazing. Back of the neck has a split in the laquer only, it’s not a split in the neck. You can’t feel it while playing and doesn’t impact at all. Strung with La Bella LTF Weight 3.55kg Yep you read that right. Comes with a Fender tweed Case. Previous owner loaned it to Ozzy Osbourne when gigging up in Scotland early 80's I believe. Price includes UK delivery and please look at pics carefully, its been used and abused but is absolutely genuine and sounds killer. Anyone is welcome to come and try at my home studio to make sure they are 100% happy. *** Heading from Northumberland to Lydney ( Gloucester ) Monday should anyone on that loop want it, I will pop it in the car ***

Here we have an original 1973 Fender Precison body in Candy Apple Red, heavy relic beauty coupled with a stunner of a Lakland J neck bought from @Quatschmacherof this very parish. The engine room consists of a Nate Mendel P bass loom and Lindy Fralin 10% overwound pick ups. Bridge is original to the bass. The original P was parted out by a guy in the states, shame as I would’ve bought it complete but was too late. I do have pictures of the original bass to confirm this. Sounds killer and strung with La Bella LTF. Weight 4kg and comes with a Fender moulded case. Shipping in U.K. included and test drives welcome. The map is back !!! ***For sale on my website but Basschatters can get a discounted price on here as discussed with the team behind the scenes! *** I’m not a big ‘shop’, more a collector with a side hustle. www.thebassmonkey.co.uk

And a damn fine bass it is too! I absolutely loved it and wish I’d had a project and band for it. Remember, first dibs…
