Up for sale, a 2000 Fender Precision Bass ‘70 vintage reissue model PB70-70US in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Boasting a custom color gloss Capri Orange finish, this "Crafted in Japan" model features a factory-installed Fender American Standard split-coil P Bass pickup, along with a couple select vintage-spec touches including a block logo on the headstock and proper thumb rest placement.
One welcome deviation from vintage spec is a thick slab rosewood fretboard (as opposed to a thinner veneer board seen on actual vintage examples). This bass delivers the goods with warm thump, excellent articulation, and sweet treble growl. Weighing 8lbs 12oz, this PB70-70US benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-105 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Medium C, measuring .825” 1st fret, .955” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood slab, vintage-spec 7 1/4" radius
-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear
-Scale Length: 34”
-Nut: 1 5/8”, bone
-Tuners: Clover buttons
-Serialization: “Crafted in Japan,” P-prefix
Body Specs:
-Wood: Alder
-Pickups: Fender USA split-coil x1
-Controls: Volume, Tone
-Harness: Full-size Japanese pots
-Hardware: Bridge with steel saddles, flat-top knurled knobs
-Plastics: Three-ply white pickguard, thumb rest
The gloss Capri Orange finish has some small dings and faint finish scratches in the clear coat, while the ambered gloss on the neck profile is smooth and clean with only a few shallow marks.
A gigbag is included.
