walshy Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 (edited) So, wasn’t sure if I’d ever sell this one but seeing as my CAR ‘69 hasn’t sold ill put this up and whichever goes first I’ll keep the other one. This is a 1969 Fender Precision Bass that is almost all original. The scratch plate is a new one and this could well be a refin, but carried out a long time ago. Looks more like custard colour now. Had a partial refret too. Strung with La Bella Flats. It’s an amazing bass for 50yrs Old! Comes complete with authentic fag burns on headstock😂 Weight 3.8kg Nut 40mm It sounds pretty aggressive compared to the CAR and plays beautifully. Truss Rod works and has no issues at all. Please come and try anytime and it’s sale only, no trades. Any questions or more pics let me know and I’ll get back to you. Paul Edited August 28, 2019 by walshy 5
gareth Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 You say "This is a 1969 Fender Precision Bass that is almost all original. The scratch plate is a new one and this could well be a refin" it might be worth getting a professional opinion on whether the finish is original or not as this will greatly effect the value of your bass GLWS 2

itsmedunc Posted August 17, 2019 Posted August 17, 2019 My favourite P bass combo, I want it. The Mrs won't have it though. The daughter was born on June 5th 1999 and I was born in 1966. Flip the 6 and hey presto. I think it's an omen but Mrs itsmedunc thinks I'm a prick. Obviously, a mere difference of opinion. 😂😂😂😂 1

Definitely worth getting an expert opinion as if have questions about the wiring in general.
