1963 Fender Precision Bass Guitar With 1972 Fender Jazz Neck. Absolute Beauty

  

It's an amazing player's bass with a Pre CBS 1963 Body and 1972 Jazz Neck. Bought from Camden Guitars In London. It was refinished in Fiesta Red at some point, heavy relic with lots of laquer checking, really nicely done.

Bridge is original with one saddle replaced. Neck plate original, L Series.

Knobs and wiring, non original CTS/Switchcraft. Please note, the control cavity has been slightly enlarged many years ago (before the refinish) which means that one pickguard screw doesn't have wood to screw into. Other than that it isn't noticeable with the pickguard on. 1972 with lovely U Shape profile, blocks and binding. Stunning checking on headstock, plays great and truss rod works as it should.

Has extra holes in headstock for Hipshot Ultralites but these are covered up by the standard Fender Style Tuners/Gotoh FB30 or similar. String tree and hootenanny button are probably original but impossible to verify! The date stamp is no longer visible.

You can just about see the name stamp and this was bought from Vintage Bass Lounge (formerly Bass Monkey) in the UK who will vouch for its authenticity. Please do get in touch with any questions. I will not post this bass so please do not ask - I can meet in or around Bristol or anywhere in Devon or Cornwall.
