Fender Precision 1977 or 1978 Vintage P Bass Guitar

For sale is vintage Fender Precision bass guitar with its matching factory case!

This is a 1977 or 1978 Series #S898xxx.

This is a black on black bass with maple neck.

This bass is being sold as not working and will need a full setup and repair to be playing

The bass guitar is a used vintage piece and has its fair share of scratches, knicks, dings, dents, fleabites, wood wear, surface cracking, and other anomalies associated with a vintage instrument.

Please take a look at picture #6.   This is a nut or screw back missing from 1 of the tuning knobs.

Because of the missing nut the tuning knob is sorta floating in and out of the hole, and is not holding the string tight to the bass.

At this point the bass is being sold as not working parts and will be your responsibility to bring back to life.

The case has its matching Fender case however its not in great condition.

Included in the case is the small piece of paper with matching serial number that was taken from the neck/body pocket when the neck came off.

Under the black finish in the cracks is red paint.  The majority of collectors agree this was a typical situation where the bass started at the factory as a red bass, but then was aborted and turned into a black bass and sold as new.

Ultimately we have not spent the life with the bass so we are not warrantying the originality of the finish in anyway.  That being said the aging and cracking of the paint looks just right.
