Fender Precision

Hi Guys,

Anyone know what a 1970, almost mint Sunburst/tort/rosewood Fender Precision is worth, complete with the original case??

Cheers,

Tim

Yep - for a really nice example with OHSC - that would be about right.

I assume you know a bit about what you are buying? Original parts are key and if you can get the full history it's a huge bonus. I own 70s Fenders which are all original with original strings / case / till receipt and 70s Fenders which have loads of parts replaced. All are well set up and play great but obviously a huge difference in resale value

Thanks for that,

I know a little bit, i.e. to check the neck stamp, pot dates & check for original soldering etc...........but please, any other tips gratefully recieved??

Thanks again,

Tim

It's really just a case of doing your homework so you know it's period correct. Your level of knowledge sounds about where mine is and I've never been ripped off buying a 70s Fender (yet!)
