Vintage 1962 Fender Precision Bass Fiesta Red Refin Bass Guitar

Vintage 1962 Fender Precision Bass Fiesta Red Refin Bass Guitar

I’m THRILLED to announce the sale of a 60+ year collection coming through The Music Locker. This collection spans all decades from the 60s to the present day. They have been collected by a true lover of vintage. This particular guitar was the cream of the crop. This was purchased second hand in the 1980s by the current owner from a local guy. It’s been kept as it is now since then. 1962 veneer board, a very well done early refinish with a white base coat, 62 dated neck and body, original black bottom pickups, 62 pot codes. The only thing I can see that is a replacement is a Japanese input jack socket. The original lined Fender hard case has no logo so it dates slightly later to 1964-1965. It’s a very very nice example. Bar the refinish and the input jack, it’s an impressively original bass guitar.

Please bear in mind the following – each guitar in the collection has been stored in a loft for decades. Therefore will require a clean and re-string. I can give the buyer two options. Firstly I can send as it is pictured to you, and you get it cleaned and restrung yourselves. Or I can do it this side when it has sold but this will add a week on to the dispatch time. Please check out my other items for the rest of the collection. The pictures below form part of my description.

The Music Locker prides itself on offering vintage and collectable pre-owned instruments and equipment (the Products).

We take all reasonable steps to ensure the equipment has been inspected by a competent person in the UK to ensure it complies with UK safety standards. This may mean it does not comply with the current standards in the country in which it will be subsequently used. It is the purchasers’ responsibility to ensure it is inspected by a competent person knowledgeable with the relevant electrical safety standards within that country, prior to connecting to any live electrical circuit.

It is the philosophy of The Music Locker to keep all items as original as possible, only changing original components when absolutely necessary. This includes valves, capacitors, transformers, potentiometers, frets, etc. This gives the buyer the option of tailoring to their exact needs, and may mean that the item is not operating at optimum performance levels. Therefore, your personal preference may differ, depending on your circumstances (i.e. collector or musician), and you may decide to service the item in more depth upon receiving.

The Music Locker cannot accept responsibility for any costs of refurbishment to a standard different to the one advertised.
