This vintage, 1965 P-Bass has all the '60s Fender vibes you could ask for. Here with an Alder body, tortoiseshell pickguard and three-color Sunburst finish, this is the classic Precision Bass look and feel. The "L" serial number and neck stamp date this guitar to July of '65, right in the middle of what is thought of as the transitional-era of the CBS acquisition of Fender. Fittingly the bass sports a lot of the Pre-CBS craftsmanship and vintage appointments including a nitrocellulose 3-tone burst finish. The original frets are present and while low, the bass plays great thanks to a Mass Street setup.

Here in Very Good condition, especially so considering its age, it features some beautiful vintage checking in the nitro finish, along with a buckle rash on the back and a few dents around the body. There is a a corner of the pickguard missing on the treble horn. The foam on the bridge ashtray has shrunk and hardened over the years, making it non-functional as a mute, it is included it in the case. All original with untouched pickups, solder joints, everything. A piece of music history with a legendary tone to boot. Includes the original hardshell case.
