About This Listing

1956 Fender Precision Bass

All original.

Heavy playwear all over possible water damage to finish however nothing else is damaged and instrument is structurally sound. It appears someone has tried to do a amateur touchup on the back of the guitar in the darker parts of the finish pictured.

9.2 lbs

This bass feels great one of the best necks I've ever played! It feels almost weightless in your hands generally just a kickass bass. Also in great shape for its age!

Product Overview
Since its introduction in 1951, one of the only major design changes for the P Bass was the use of contoured body edges brought about in 1954. These basses retain the single-coil pickup from the first run, but the poles are staggered rather than flat for a slightly lower overall output. This period also saw the introduction of the Sunburst finish to the P-Bass, which became standard around mid-1955.

Notable Players: Geezer Butler, Roger Waters, John Deacon, Sting
