Ray C Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Hi Everybody, I'll keep this as breif as possible. I, after many years, have become the proud owner of a 1962 precision, all original, apart from a gawd awful refinish (sort of hideous brown colour, why!!!!!!!!!!!!). I've had the bass re-done in its original 3tsb livery with a well used/very well worn finish, and my compliments to the gentleman, it looks superb, absolutely made up with it!!!. i know, I know, it's a refin, refin, but, like so many of you fellow low enders out there, I don't happen to have a spare £7000-£10000 in my back pocket for a 9 out of ten specimen (possibly more) complete with orginal case and candy!!! Anyhow, me being an old fart, I kinda like my basses to be properly ''dressed'' and I'm on the lookout for a 1962 bridge cover, pick-up cover and thumb rest (with screws if poss). So, if anybody out there has, or can point me in the right direction to obtain these parts I'd be very greatful. I fully understand, they'll be pretty thin on the ground, and obviously expensive for the right parts. but hey, if it's worth doing, then try and do it properly!!. Thanks for listening out there in bass land, and if you have any help or advice, greatly appreciated. Aye, Ray C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jono Bolton Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I don't have any parts you need, but I'd like to be the first to say "pics of this beast please!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Old Fender parts do regularly appear on Ebay, more often than not in the U.S. though. Hard to determine which ones are genuine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
