Description:

For sale my Fiesta Red Fender Precision road worn 1957 Bass. (2016)
It's has been loved and cared for in the three years I've owned it.

This Fender plays really great and sounds just like that classic wonderful punchy P bass sound.

Gigged a handful of times.
I have used it mainly in the studio including Cliff Richard's last record and
Cassidy Janson's album last year.

The neck is exceptional and is as good as any old Fender I've played.

The road worn stuff is cool I suppose...but the parts such as the neck on these beat up Fender's are worth the extra cost over their standard issue models for sure.

Genuine reason for selling the bass.

It's a lovely bass feel wise and the sonics are sweet and punchy.
It has been setup properly by a professional that does my other instruments.

Surprisingly It never came with a case or gig bag so sorry about that one.

Original labels and assembly cards included.


The original was born in the '50s and produced the sound of bass. On the road, the more you punished a Precision, the more it gave back a virtually indestructible bass that took a beating and laughed while it asked for more, becoming even cooler-looking and more comfortable-feeling than when it was brand-new. Fender's new Road Worn '50s Precision Bass guitar delivers that aged look and feel designed with 1950s specs, including a nitrocellulose-lacquer finish, and built to look, sound and feel like it's got more than just a few miles on it.
