Fender Vintage 1970s Fender Bass Tuner – Removed from a 1973 Jazz Bass – Original Patina

Vintage 1970s Fender Bass Tuner – Removed from a 1973 Jazz Bass – Original Patina

Offered here is an original 1970s Fender bass tuning machine, removed directly from a 1973 Fender Jazz Bass. This is the correct large clover key tuner used during the CBS-era, making it ideal for a period-correct Jazz or Precision Bass restoration.

The tuner shows honest vintage wear and natural patina, consistent with age and use, and has not been cleaned or altered. It turns smoothly and functions exactly as it should. The aged plating, oxidation, and wear are exactly what collectors and restorers look for when matching original hardware on a genuine vintage Fender bass.

This is not a reproduction, but an authentic Fender tuner with known provenance from a 1973 Jazz Bass, perfect for replacing a missing or incorrect original or for a relic-correct custom build.

Please review all photos carefully to assess condition and patina.
