1958 Fender Precision on Craig's list

That's absurdly gorgeous.

 

That is my idea of perfect.
Not to much wear but not mint.
13500 isn't a bad price ether. If I had the cash right now I would be taking a road trip for that.

 

You know, I always liked two-tone sunburst better than three tone. It captures a very nice woody brown that you just don't get in the three-tone.

 

That is a really really nice bass. $13.5k - just shows you how the market has adjusted in the last 5 years.

 

A rare bird indeed, to have survived intact...

 

A beautiful bass, and its really awesome that the poster took the effort to post that many high quality pictures as well.

 

Just beautiful. I'd be surprised from the pics and the description if this wasn't 100% legit.

 

I don't get how the silks on 55yo strings look brand new while my 3 mo Chromes already look like a cat got after them. Imma doing something wrong.

 

he never said how old the strings where,they could be fresh

 

OMG! A year younger than myself and in much better condition...

Bass of the year and no mistake.

I've downloaded the piccies.

 

Wow, a really nice piece! The seller knows their subject matter very well.

 

Is it me or is it that 1st and 2nd strings are flat and 3rd and 4th round?

 

Wow! Beauty!

 

THE ORIGINAL STRINGS?!!!! DAYUM! That must be some DARN THUMPY 55 year old flats!

 

No trades. ..lol what would u offer for starters? Car, boat...lol. I drooled over the pics long enough...

 

The original strings are not the strings on the bass. The originals are in paper envelopes next to the bass.





That bass has been up for very close to a month, unsold at $13.5k. In Nashville of all places. The actual market value must be closer to $10grand? For a '58!

 

"the original gig bag"


I had no idea they originally came in gig bags way back then. Is that true?

 

There is almost an identical 58 on reverb nation for 10.5 w/o the gig bag. About the same condition which could probably be had for 9.7 or 9.8...

 

Let me wipe the drool off my chin.
