Fender Precision Bass 1979 Player grade
Guitar description
A superb P bass from the end of the 1970s. This example is a lovely instrument and has certainly seen a lot of use. Plenty of scars and scrapes on the body with a genuine 'Relic' look to it. The neck has had the thick poly lacquer removed and the wood oiled. A vast improvment in terms of playability. The headstock and logo all remain in the stock finish. Aside from this it's all stock and original. In terms of sound and playability this one really excels and is a wonderful instrument. A lovely 'played in' condition but in perfect working order, very well set up and it's ready to rock. Presented in a very high quality Hiscox case. Like most 1970s Fenders these are rising in value. This one is priced competitvely and according to it's condition.

Well used with plenty of battle scars. Frets are great and plays like a dream. Neck lacquer removed (due to the classic late 70s cracking issues) and sanded and oiled. A vast improvement to playability and makes it a superb instrument.
