1975 Fender Precision Bass Mint 8.5 Lbs!

Sign in to disble this ad
This is a near mint 1975 Fender Precision. I acquired this in a trade with another TB'er. It is all original and weighs a surprising 8.5 pounds. Super light, especially for a mid 70's Fender.
Comes with original case, pickup and bridge cover, hang tag and case keys.
The only issue with the bass is that the output is a little low. It's lower than my other Fenders. I was going to check the pots, but didn't want to unsolder the connections.
For this reason, I'm willing to take less than what I acquired it for in trade value.
Asking $1850 shipped. PM me with any offers or questions. Thanks

DAYUM!

I wish the finish on my black 78 would have held up like that. This one hasn't been played much, I take it?

Amazing condition, good luck.

I still remember the feeling of opening that case and seeing THAT bass.
Super cool to see such a mint specimen. Mine was modded many years ago...

If I could somehow justify yet another split coil P bass I'd buy that one and just stare at it to remember how it felt to be 13
