What do you think? What about the decal on the headstock? When did they switch to the bigger logo?

Thanks,

The year after...... I think.

Yeah, the Fender Bass book says "late 1960s".

The decal looks to be in the wrong place compared with these examples.

I don't think the placement of the decal was an exact science in the factory at the time. I believe the one shown on the bay to be genuine.

I think it was '64, although couldn't swear to it. I've seen Precisions which have been touted as '64s with both Spaghetti logo and the transition logo like this. I think this is the right logo for a '66

That's all spot-on for a '66 P Bass - and not a bad price for a custom colour one in what looks to be pretty good nick.

Nice! Would love a 66 'P'.
