Up for sale, a 2011 Fender Precision Bass ‘57 vintage reissue model PB57 in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, This “Made in Japan” P Bass was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market and select international territories, uncommon outside of its country of origin.

The split-coil pickup delivers the warmth, sweet treble articulation, and fundamental thump that define the Precision tone, particularly round and rumbling with the Tone knob rolled off to taste. This PB57 weighs 8lbs 5oz, benefitting from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, comfortable action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Candy Apple Red finish is abbreviated "OCR" in the Fender Japan catalog for Old Candy Apple Red, denoting a darker and more vintage-correct shade of this classic custom color than other Fender Japan offerings. This is a well-kept example, with just a few small marks on the back, while the smooth ambered gloss on the neck profile is flawless.

The original Fender-branded gigbag is included.
