NBD: 1959 Precision!!!

[JimmyM]

Surprisingly good shape for such an old bass. Plus the covers and pickguard look awfully good for their age, too.

Congratulations on a fantastic looking bass - I only hope you didn't have to sell too many bodily organs to get hold of this one!

 

[RED J]

That's a dream come true ! Congrats !

 

[Midak]

Congratulations and Happy New Year!

Mid-century masterpiece. It looks like it spent a few decades stashed in a bomb shelter. Congrats!

Wasn't this about the time Fender introduced the rosewood fretboard?

You are correct, sir. But I would have chosen the Maple option but that"s just me

 

[theduke1]

My only question is
Are you going to play it or just keep it locked up so you can look at it?
Cause it it is not going to be used that is a shame. It was made to be play often and by someone who knows how!
I'm sure you know how so........

If I were a righty, I definitely would play that thing. It looks like it was well taken care of. I don't believe in owning museum pieces.

Wow! My birth year!

Congratulations and enjoy it!

 

[Augment]

Wow! Most 50's-60's Fenders look like they've been around since the 1920's. That thing practically looks new!

 

[SJLee]

Congratulations! A beautiful bass.

 

[bholder]

Wow! My birth year!

Congratulations and enjoy it!

Mine, too. I have to admit, though, when it comes to basses, I definitely kinda "have a thing" for them "older ladies".

 

[Bill Whitehurst]

Nice!
Congrats.

 

[veebass]

Lovely- congratulations. I played a 59 a while back- rosewood board but had the anodised guard- must have been a transitional time.
One of the best split coil P Basses I have played.

[Rob S]

Daniel, you didn't tell me the '59 was THIS nice

Congrats Pentatonic!

 

[Mik75]

Breathtakingly beautiful! I would love to hear this baby!

 

[Lo-E]

Beautiful! That would make my new year pretty happy, indeed!

 

[Pet Sounds]

Beautiful! Personally, I love the rosewood fretboard. Incredible condition!
