Here is the story on this American vintage 57.
This was my bass originally which I sold in 2021 , a link to that sale is included.
I ended up selling it to a very good friend of mine.
He hates Pickguards! Even Tort, so he sanded the front of the body only and refinished it for a different look.
5 years later I bought it back from him….time flies!
The body is the original 2011 American vintage reissue 57 Precision including the original raised A pole pickup, Pickguard and bridge.
The front of the body was sanded and refinished.
The back of the body is the original 2 tone sunburst Nitro.
Today I just installed the Fretted neck that I put on my Tony Franklin that I bought brand new and put the AVRI 57 neck on my Tony Franklin. See neck specs below.
The neck has brand new Gotoh GBR 640 super lightweight nickel tuners $140.
I just got done tweaking the setup on this Bass and all I can say is this baby rips !!
Honestly punches way above its price point.
Here are the neck specs:
Fender Vintera II 50’s Vintage C Roasted Maple Neck $400.
Thank you for looking!
Plays exceptionally well and sounds way better than I remember.
$1000.plus actual shipping,
no price drops but I will entertain offers.
Will ship in a brand new gig bag with the tag still on it.
.
One and only Price drop:
850 local cash ot
950 Shipped!!
