Up for sale, a 2000 Fender Precision Bass ‘62 vintage reissue model PB62-53 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Crafted in Japan” model was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market, uncommon outside its country of origin.

Weighing 8lbs 15oz, tonewoods include a basswood body and maple neck capped by a thick slab rosewood fretboard.
