At the moment spacing is more like 17mm. It's possible to widen this a little by using different slots on the bridge barrels.
-
Tempting, love the rosewood fretboard. I might get back to you once Ive sold my tele -
Still available Please note that the transaction options are local pickup or shipping only. I will not travel (a long distance) to deliver the bass.
-
Welcome:) Around 4.0 without covers, and 4,2kg with covers mounted.
-
Forgot to mention; now there is a scpb-3 quarter pound pickup fitted. Original and working pickup is of course included.
-
Thanks String spacing is somewhat adjustable as the saddles have several slots. Though overall I would say this bass has a standard (19mm?) Fender bridge spacing. Could check this later.

Lovely. You've got some nice basses:) -
These single coil telecasters were in production for just a few years (68-71). From what I think ive read, these were reissued to meet to the demand for the early 50s p basses. So this was actually the first reissue bass by Fender.

Fender '71 telecaster bass Scarce single coil tele bass. Its a resonant bass with a great sound. The playability is very good, especially if you like a baseball bat type neck. Action goes low on this one, for an easy playability. The tele seems to be largely original. The tone pot has been replaced, as well as one part of a tuning peg which holds the string. Some wood has been added in the neckpocket to accomodate a tighter fit. The scratchplate has the pearloid backside, as used by Fender in that era. The blonde lacquer has discoloured a lot, to the well known yellow blonde colour. Its discolouring is very well visible with the pickup covers taken off. The bass has been used well, so has its battle scars. There are teles which are quite heavy. This one is pretty light example though. It weighs only about 4kg without covers, and 4,2kg with covers mounted. Ive listed the tele as a Feeler as I am not completely sure about a sale.. I really like this bass, but im thinking about replacing it with a (much) cheaper counterpart as it is not my main bass, and spend the money on something else. Its definitely one of the better sounding and playing Fenders ive laid my hands on. Though it may leave at a good price point. A mid 70s fender hardcase (in good shape) is included in the sale. 45-105 nickel lo rider strings are fitted. Asking £ 3.000 The bass is located in the netherlands. Im happy to ship within the eu. Partial trades considered. Per example; mustang bass, split coil P, fretless, 2eq stingray w lacquered neck, cheaper good quality basses like old tokai...cool amp, effect pedals (compressor)... surprise me! Might consider 1-1 trades when it concerns a great vintage lightweight j or p. Do not hestitate to contact me with any question or a serious trade offer. This ad may be withdrawn when I change my mind.

Bump. Near (cash) offers welcome.

4,65 kg on my kitchen scale. Very reasonable for an ash bodied jazz in my experience.

It looks even better in real life!! The orange colour really stands out on this nice grained body.

Updated with better pictures!:)
