Hi everybody

Selling some vintage Fender parts for a nice P-bass project :

true 1960' ies naked  feather light ash body , wonderfull wood grain 
the body was originally blonde,  cleaned after a spray job and refinished in natural 
comes with the original bridge .Weight is 2 kg 

its fretted  1971 Fender Precision neck with original tuners, beautifull rosewood fretboard 
the truss rod has been professionally repaired and fixed

i can split and sell  body and neck separately !

the action of the bass is max 2,5 -3 mm on the 12th fret , which is not too bad for a vintage Fender 

simply fit it with a good pickup ( Lundgren, Seymour, Lindy Fralins which work all very well on this ash body) and a nice Emerson kit 

( or other ) and you have immediately a very good vintage Fender Precision  player for a decent price !

I can throw in , for some additional money of course, its  original pickups which are dated  1970 , but these other brands do a

very good job too , really !

for additional infos and pics, please send me a PM 

thanks for looking

Yes, of course!

the names escaped me for moment, that was the only one i remembered 🙂 

.....perhaps just because i tried it and it worked very , very good in some of my P basses

Could you add a pic of the body without scratchplate to see the routing?

Thanks!

What can you tell about the body? You mention "true 1960's", but what year exactly? The bridge belongs to the body? What's the neck plate serial number? 

And do you have a picture without the bridge installed? Weight of the body? Thanks. :)

Hi , pickups are dated 1970, neck 1971, pots 1966

neck plate is 280 xxx

 

and yes, it is the original late 60'ies early 70'ies bridge

the bass belonged to a luthier before who was repairing a lot of vintage Fender guitars and basses. He was cleaning it and refinished the body  in natural, because he liked the wood grain.

He said that the body is older than the rest of the bass, because of the lightweight ash body.

I have to check and  post the exact weight here

For the cost of a few (pretty inexpensive) bits, some one is going to get a superb bass at a knockdown price. If it weren't for a Covid-related salary reduction I'd have bought this.

I already have a similar mongrel bass that is superb.
