One of the rarest and most desirable years of all Fender Basses and Guitars, this bass guitar has received (from our repair staff) one of the finest and most enthusiastic reports concerning all aspects of structural condition, originality, adjustability and playability as any vintage fretted instrument we have ever received.  WAS $9795 BUT NOW ON SALE FOR:

Fender’s ’70s Jazz Bass® captures the essence of the decade with striking looks and bright, full sound. That decade saw the bridge pickup placed closer to the bridge, creating a brighter, more cutting tone, and the addition of neck binding and block fretboard inlays. Features include ultra-slim neck with bullet truss rod nut, vintage-style alnico magnet Jazz Bass single-coil pickups, and vintage-style bridge. 

Since its early-’50s introduction, the Fender® Precision Bass® guitar has remained the world standard for thick tone and smooth playability. The Standard Precision Bass combines the best of old and new, with a modern single-coil pickup, shielded body cavity, medium jumbo frets, vintage-style bridge, tinted neck with rosewood or maple fretboard, three-ply parchment pickguard and ’70s-style headstock logo. Standard gig bag included.

Mean, mean stride. The Geddy Lee Jazz Bass® guitar is an exact replica of the tonally singular instrument that Rush’s revered bassist/vocalist has riffed away on in front of millions of devoted fans worldwide and on many a mega-selling album. The bass has an alder body; the thin one-piece C-shaped maple neck has a maple fingerboard with black binding and black rectangular position markers.

The Hofner Icon Series Violin bass is a made-in-the-far-east interpretation of the iconic instrument that Sir Paul has made universally famous beyond words.    Hofner utilizes actual spruce for the top and not quite as actual flamed maple for the sides and back (let us call it “layered maple”), which produces the sweet, warm, round sound that we are so fondly familiar with.    The body is considered semi-hollow and the connection of neck to body is “set” just like you will be if you owned this fine bass guitar.  

The 1958 reissue celebrates the retirement of Dieter Fisher, the master craftsman that made all of Paul McCartney's Basses. It comes with documentation and a Hofner shop smock. Some of the most striking features are the oval shaped control panel, Tortoise pick guard and tweed case. Only 58 made. This bass is # 12 of 58.

Fender invented the electric bass guitar, introducing the Precision Bass in 1951. Its thick sound and indestructible build changed the face of popular music. New American Standard Precision basses are today’s versions of the great instruments of bass heroes past and present—the modern interpretations of our classic instrument, refined for today’s players.

One of the most popular electric basses in the world, this one is made with a maple body and neck, and it has a 33-1/4" scale length, 1-11/16" nut width, East Indian rosewood fingerboard, neck-thru-body construction, bound neck, single coil pickups, Schaller Deluxe tuners, with rectangular hard shell case.
