Fender Japan '70 Precision Bass PB70-70US Olympic White 2010
Fender '70 Precision Bass, olympic white, made in Japan 2010-11. Good enough for Dee Dee Ramone, goo enough for you, right? These '70 style P-basses always turn heads around here and we nab them whenever we can. You get a fun neck: it's 40mm at the nut, so halfway between a traditional vintage P and a Jazz Bass. That makes it just a whisker easier to play, combined with a lightweight alder body, this is super slick and simple in the hands. The USA pickup offers a little extra definition and sparkle than the standard MIJ offerings, so this has a sweet balance of classic P-punch through the lows, growly mids and chirpy highs. The white finish has yellowed a little and copped a handful of minor knocks, so you know it's a players' bass rather than a case queen. If you like them simple and sleek with heaps of grunt, this will surely deliver.
Model: Fender Precision Bass, PB70-70US
Made: Japan, 2010-11, Dyna plant (serial U047693)
Finish: olympic white, 3-ply black guard

Neck: maple with rosewood board, 7.25" radius, 34" scale, 40mm nut, slim C shape
Weight: 4.080kg
Mods: none
Pickup: Fender USA P-Bass Vintage split single-coil
Case: very basic gig bag
Cosmetic condition notes: mild finish wear. There's a couple of marks on the end of the headstock. The neck has minor dimples on the back, it's clean and smooth in the hands. The back has a fade mark from a since-removed Rolling Stones sticker, as well as a minor chip on the belly carve, a dimple near the neck plate and some widespread light scuffs. The sides have a few scuffs and dimples in the elbow area, near the jack and on the bottom horn. The front has a little dent on the bottom edge near the volume knob, some dimples near the jack and around the bridge, as well as some standard play wear on the guard and horn. Overall: very good condition (8/10)
Playing condition notes: Action is low, neck is straight, intonation is good, truss rod works. All electrics tested and working properly. Frets have minor wear only, 9/10 for life left. Set up with fresh 45/105 Moonshiners strings.
