Fender 1963 Precision Bass, Sunburst with Non-Original Hard Case (pre-owned)

“Not a Reissue. Not a Replica. This Is the Real Deal.”

Here’s a chance to own a genuine piece of Fender history… an original 1963 Precision Bass! It’s racked up genuine vibe and mojo as you’d expect from the golden era of electric basses. This P-Bass wears its six decades with pride, showing honest wear and tear that speaks to a lifetime of music, but still retains the character and playability that made it a legend.

The laminate rosewood fingerboard is in exceptional shape and it shows no fret wear — likely due to either careful fret dressing or a prior fret replacement. The hardware remains in solid working condition with just the right amount of tarnish to suit its age, adding to the authentic patina of this vintage classic. The original pickguard has some mild warping and corner splits, consistent with its age but remains stable and full of character.

While it doesn’t come with its original case, it is housed in a more recent Fender hard case for secure storage and transport.

If you’re after that unmistakable thump and soul only a real ‘63 Precision can offer, with the feel and tone that modern reissues only dream of, this bass delivers.
