The Story

1978 Precision Bass Fretless Natural

This is a very cool vintage 1978 Fender Precision Bass with a fretless rosewood fingerboard and strung up with flatwound strings, perfect for those smooth sounding basslines! The bass features a natural gloss finish over the ash body. There is an aftermarket wooden thumbrest added to the pickguard that's different from the original black plastic but goes with the ash nicely. The bass features the original electronics and hardware and plays wonderfully. A modern Fender gigbag is included.
