1969 Precision....Where's the truss nut?

1969 Precision, but that truss nut looks like it's disappeared up,the neck, maybe a spacer would sort it out...

I've seen them go up the neck, but never that far before. Makes me wonder if the rod is actually in there?

At that price, they may not actually know what they are doing anyway, or they are chancing it.

I wouldn't spend money on that...it's not quite right

Not sure those saddles are right for 69 either!

The date stamp seems very bold for 47 year old ink

Shipping cost: £7.80...
I don't know one P from another, but I do know that's a silly number. Especially for a £3700 bass.

And the saddle screws should be slotted. The whole bridge is wrong. Bearing in mind its a refin, the pickup and bridge cover holes could have been filled in at that time.

Bridges like this (7 screw, hex adjusters) are common on 70s MIJ copies. Not suggesting that's what this bass is, as bridges can be swapped & screwholes filled, but £3700 for something that has a strong likelihood of being a bitsa - or worse - is hilarious. And not in a good way.,
