Is this a legitimate Fender Precision bass?

Yep. Don't pass that one up. It is rare enough to find a late fifties P-Bass like that, much less one with the stock 0.000"-0.000" factory installed flat-round wound strings. I zoomed in pretty far on the photo and was just able to barely make out the shadow of the Squier logo (which was a clever Fender factory press release tactic to make the world aware of future offerings). If you zoom out on the photo, you can see the OP's entire living room, most of which has obviously already been affected by the mojo, oomph and slam of the bass. Undeniably legitimate. Are you taking offers?
