The very first production model solid body bass! Built as a counterpart to the Telecaster, even featuring the same headstock, the P-Bass became one of the most ubiquitous bass seen in music then and now. This first production run bass is in near original condition with just replaced saddles to note, but the originals will be included as well. It plays and feels stellar - It doesn't get better than this!

Includes a non original modern tweed case .
