About This Listing

Fender Musicmaster Bass • 1973 • Dakota Red • Very Good Cond

Original Dakota Red factory finish.
Rosewood fretboard with no issues.
Original neck in excellent playing condition with very good original frets (feels like home from it's well played smooth finish and fret end wear).
Original early 3 screw nickel tuners.
Original pickguard, missing thumb rest, see pix.

It’s only 7.8 lbs of sheer fun!
Changed pots, in the late 80's.
Changed pickup to 80's 016730 bobbin stamped Fender flat 6 pole Strat pickup (matches original 6 pole pickup in every way except more and better tone and output).
Changed pickup cover.
Comes in padded soft case shown.

Sounds great, plays great, looks 51 years old, appropriately worn and gig worthy

Product Overview
As a product of the '70s (with a brief reissue in 1997 headed by Squier), the Fender Musicmaster Bass is a shorter-scale, stripped-down version of the Fender Mustang Bass. Distinguish between older and later models by the tuning keys: the former sported triangular tuning keys while the latter is Mustang-style. If you're looking for a real vintage bass at a far more musician-friendly price, the Fender Musicmaster Bass may be your pick.
