Condition notesGreat Used Condition
This 1956 Fender Precision Bass is a great example of an early P-Bass, featuring a solid swamp ash body with a classic two-tone sunburst finish and a one-piece maple neck. Weighing 8.6 lbs, it has a comfortable C-shaped neck, original reverse tuners, and the unmistakable look and feel of a '50s Fender.

The original-style single-coil Precision Bass pickup has been rewound, with non-original wiring, shielding, and electronic components. An interesting detail is the three guitar picks tucked beneath the pickguard. In great used condition with the original hard shell case included.
