1995 Fender '51 Precision Bass Guitar Sunburst

Offered for sale:

Used 1995 Fender Made in Japan '51 Precision Bass Guitar “aka” OPB-51, or Original Precision Bass ’51 Reissue, serial number T012393.

This bass is in very good condition, neck and frets are fine. It has the original white pickguard as well as a non-original tortoise shell version. Both are pictured here. A non-original Zero-Mod thumb rest was also added. It is not in the photo with the white pickguard. That photo shows the screw hole for the thumb rest.

The original pickup was replaced with a Lindy Fralin ‘51 P-Bass. As with the pickguards, both are included.

Cosmetically there are some nicks and marks about the body including several around the lower edges.

Fender states:

The '51 Precision Bass guitar combines great traditional Precision Bass tone in a classic package that bass players and collectors will love! It's a special-edition Precision Bass with an ash body, maple fingerboard and detailed vintage styling. Features include the original Precision Bass headstock shape, single vintage single-coil pickup and two-saddle bridge. The look, feel and vibe of this bass are classic Fender, and speak to decades of bass history and tradition. Besides all that, though, it just looks and sounds cool!

Original hard-shell case included.

If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
