Fender / Telecaster Bass / 1970 / Bass
Here we have an exceptional and original Fender Telecaster Bass from 1970 with its original finishe and original hardcase of the previous Swiss distributions . Nothing has been modified or changed on this instrument
But the originality of a vintage instrument is not everything, and as the photos attest this bass played religiously, and if I say religiously, it’s because this superb instrument has made ecumenical services and choirs almost all her life … Excellent condition, with some blemish, playwear, flaws and small knocks here and there, but frankly, the beauty does not looks like she’s 50 years old…
Besides the condition and the playing comfort, it is especially the weight and the resonance of the baby that impress. Barely more than 4 kilos with the microphone covers, while the body does not have the curves and shape of the P Bass or especially the Jazz Bass.
- original pots, code 032367 / 304 7051 (51st week of 1970)
- original unmolested solders
- original pickup with code 2360 (aca June 1970)
No stamp on the neck. And it’s not just because she played in churches most of her time that this bass has a soul, but almost …
Comes with its original Swiss distribution case in great condition, with the latches working perfectly, and some period goodies. A very pleasant find, both for the collector and for the musician.
