Well, I've now purchased another vintage P bass, so this is definitely up for sale. I'm not looking for trades at present.

My all original 1966 Precision, including its original case, which just like the bass, is in great condition.

The finish looks great, there is of course some wear and crazing just as you would expect but the colour remains vibrant.

All hardware functions perfectly.

Electrics work flawlessly. Solder and wiring is all original, nothing has been tampered with.

Frets are very good still and the neck is lovely.


Weight is about 8lb 12 oz.

Width at nut 43 mm.

Fretboard radius is 7.25.


Plenty of pics down below, can always email more.


Price is £4850.
 

Now £4750.

For a while, I'm dropping the price to £4,500. For an all original, in this condition, I think it represents very good value, particularly when comparing with dealer prices. 


Collection much preferred, I'm in Herts. Happy to discuss posting but only if insured and with a trusted courier service. Please note this is NOT included within my price.

Payment, cash or bank transfer. Pay Pal if the buyer is willing to cover the fees.

Gary that is a wonderful looking Precision! It would look great next to the 66 Jazz that I bought from your very self but alas funds won't stretch at the moment. Great seller. GLWTS

Thanks for that Norm, good to hear that you still have the Jazz. :)

That really is stunning, Gary. Am very glad my Mum & Dad had the sense to bring me into the world in 65 or I would be flogging my very soul to own this cracker.

Cheers Lozz. :)

YOB for me too. And a stunning example. Unfortunately I need a car and to decorate the house. The mundane intrudes on my dreams once again...

Good luck with the sale (not that you'll need it I suspect!). :gas:

Change your mind and keep it. My pic is me playing my 66 and it's just a brilliant bass. KEEP IT!!!!!!!!!!!

If it doesn't go soon, then I reckon I'll miss the opportunity for the one that I wanted to go for, in which case I will be keeping it. Not much of a hardship though :lol:

Win-win, really. And if you keep it, we know where it is and there is always the possibility of it being available in future. ;)

I think that this is one of those that the price isn't the issue - dropping £100 won't entice anybody who didn't already have the cash and wanted this and the advertised price isn't that expensive for a bass like this - you've only got to look at the Andy Baxter site to see.

Eventually somebody born in '66 with the money will be along and snap this up. Till then it'll be eye candy for all the P lovers here.

Having said that, GLWTS.

I was born in 1964 and I would love to own this bass. No funds though.
