1969 - All Original - Precision Bass in Sunburst - Great Condition- Original Hard Case - Slim B shape neck!

In excellent all original condition with a gorgeous B shaped neck. The bass is 'virgin', it has no changed parts or issues and comes with it's original hard case and metal covers. Weighs only 8.20lb.

This bass was bought from, and is listed as 'sold' on the great Andy Baxter Bass website, up for £3150 if you'd like to take a look.

I got this bass as i love excellent condition vintage Fenders and the slim B shape necks that became standard after 1968 (but later became fat in the 70's). I fell in love with the bass immediately, it's got a warm vintage tone and is light and comfortable. Plus, as well as being a great player, it's better than money in an ISA these days! Sadly I just can't kick the love of my '66 Precision, and having always played '64 and '66 Precision basses I just can't change my mold. It is now just sitting under the bed so I'm going to sell it to pay for my recently acquired Custom Shop Jazz Bass.

For those of you who are eagle eyed, Fender used orange and green cloth wiring in the 60's for their amplifiers. CBS began to use up this wire on guitars from around 1968 when they changed amp wiring from cloth to plastic, hence the great colour of the wires on this bass. They also used up old stock of pickups, hence the two tone. The solder joints are completely virgin, all components are completely original, as verified.

Sad to see this one go as I love the style, tone and slim neck option.

I am based in Harrow, NW London/Middx.

Posting now possible, please email me if interested.

Thanks
