Picked up this 62 Precision for a Steal

[ardgedee]

Is this the Flea signature model?

 

[RockDoc]

Flats or rounds?

 

[Biffa]

Surely Fender was only producing a 34" scale during the Kennedy administration.

Kennedy was out of the country when this one was built, he was in Cuba with Marilyn Monroe

 

[Biffa]

I have a spare ashtray bridge cover if you want to buy it!

It came complete with original covers

 

[Biffa]

Is this the Flea signature model?

Well a flea could actually play it

 

[Biffa]

Flats or rounds?

Defo flats, Rotosounds

 

[Biffa]

Anyone got a 1/4"-0.25mm Jack?

 

[Briton]

Flats or rounds?

It's a 62 Precision so it's got to be Flats. But seriously what have they used as strings?

 

[MtManiac]

Why don't they ever make this in sonic blue? Everything is always sunburst.

 

[Groove Doctor]

If only it was a lefty....

 

[Spidey2112]

Pretty sure Tiny Elvis played that on the 'Peanut Butter and Nana Sandwich' tour...

Shut up and take my money! Where does one buy these?

eBay, it's called, Fender The Best Collection 1962 Precision Bass. They also do some classic Tele's and Strats and a 62 Jazzmaster, they're made in Japan

 

[Tony In Philly]

Something about it tells me it's a parts bass.

 

[postalflunkie]

I'm sure it sounds huge.
Get yourself a Blackstar Fly amp and you'll be all set

 

[39-Bassist]

Now that's a bass I can handle the weight of.

View attachment 3394057 It's the most amazing scale model I've ever seen, every detail is amazing, it even has a serial number

This would be the perfect size bass for a hypothetical president with tiny hands......

 

[LT131]

That spacing is too tight.

 

[bassliner50]

Intonation must be tricky.

 

[ElMon]

Looks like a slab board.

You'll want to have the CITES paperwork for that Brazilian Rosewood board, in case you fly with it in your pocket.
