FS- 1979 Fender Precision Bass - Antigua

Sign in to disble this ad


For sale: 2k, plus s/h/i. (no international sales please)

Entire album of pics (make sure to click on them for full view!) - http://public.fotki.com/stu1965/1979-fender-precisi/

Bass is in excellent condition, and is all original. If you guys know these basses, you'll know that the pickguard always cracked in the same spot. I had the luthier at the guitar museum here in NY (Chris) create that little tail piece, and there is a white pickguard in the case (non orig). I have searched high and low for another pickguard, and cant find one. Original case is in good shape, all latches work. I do not have the pickup cover. Weight approx 8.5 lbs (bathroom scale, lol)

The neck is dated 77-78 but the pots are dated 6th week of 1979, so Ill take that to think it is a 1979. I am not the original owner. I bought the bass solely for recording (this one has redonkulous tone), and it has never been played out. It was last used on Carl Roa's latest album (www.carlroa.com) about a year ago.

The bass was recently cleaned up and set up by Sal Tine (http://www.theguitarfix.com/), who is really amazing, and takes care of all my basses. 45-105s are on it now.

I'd love to see it find a new home...someone who is serious about tone and feel. I am now in a cover band, so having phenom recording tone is not a necessity now.

I realize ive never sold on here...my ebay userid is stu1965, i guess you can use that to see my 'feedbacks'.

Will be on ebay next week.

I've never seen one with a rosewood fretboard. I'd have liked that, as it's my preference

Yep I've seen one with a rosewood board on the Olivia's Vintage site a while back. I love the maple look though.
