1973/4 Fender Precision Bass Fretless SOLD £750

[0353203]

Hi All,

Up for sale is my modded 1973/4 fretless Precision bass, serial number 410729, with a non-original case. Original natural finish.

The body has been routed in three places to accommodate an active Bartolini P/J set-up....control cavity enlarged, J pickup added at the neck, cavity created on the rear body to fit the 2 batteries. The pickguard is obviously not the original, and neither are the strap buttons (they are brand new schallers) or the thumb rest (Fender RI).

The body itself shows signs of playwear with some buckle rash on the rear and various scratches, dinks and dongs.....the neck is still in great condition.

The case is old but pretty sturdy....one of the corners is badly worn but all that is made up for by the fact that it has a pink lining !

The bass plays and sounds fantastic.....I can't say I'm an expert on active pickups, but the various range of tones / blends etc is just great.

Cheers, Si
