Bunion Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 (edited) I am absolutely gutted to be putting this up for sale but needs must. A Pre CBS 1963 Precision which is all original on parts but has a refinish that was done way back in its past in Lake Placid Blue All the pickups, wiring loom, neck, body reverse tuners. Bridge etc are all original. It has a Brazilian rosewood fretboard which Is just dark and lustrous. The truss rod is flush with pocket and set up to perfection (for me) but still turns freely both ways. I have listed this early before obligatory stripping for pictures of neck, pocket, loom etc to judge the interest in it, it is set up perfectly and I’m not going break it down if no one is interested. The tone is rich from this and the pickups are hot, for a passive it pumps out the bass as I’m sure @walshy will chime in and confirm. Something I know I can never replace but real life takes over nostalgia. There is no original Case but it does come with a fitted Fender red label moulded hard shell or I have a brand new fender tweed modern hard case if you would prefer that. It’s strung with old La Bella 760Fs deep talking 45-105 flats and it’s a beast with these on. It comes with the bridge and pick up covers. I will send the serial to anyone that wants to check it, I welcome and do encourage anyone interested in the bass to come and see/try it for themselves. I won’t be posting this, I will hand it over personally. If you want me to take it to bass direct or bass bros for authentication I’m happy to do it at the buyers cost. I approached Will at bass direct earlier this year and he said he would list it at £6,900. Edited December 15 by Bunion 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
