    How’s the low G, thru a loud tube amp? That’s how I test P Basses.

    Norman is a great source and a very nice person. I have been extremely satisfied with the Sonic Blue (body-only refin') '66 Precision that I got from him. Feel free to PM me if you want to know more or to verify his contact information, etc., pre-purchase. Not affiliated; just a happy customer.

    FYI, 3596 is not pot date, you have them in the missing (on the photo) part 137XXYY where XX is year, YY month.

    My '60 is less than 100 numbers below yours. I guess yours is VERY late 60 (like December) or early 61. What's the date on the body and real pot dates? Mine is around 8 LBS too, not extra light, but "regular light". Perfect balance, resonance and weight. Good luck with the sale!

    Any chance that whoever did the refin was wise enough to not paint over the pencil date in the pickup cavity? Maybe try to get a pic posted?
    My ‘60 is 521XX, absolutely stellar recording and performing instrument! The new owner will be grinning for weeks!
