Fender Precision Bass 1956, Black - Refin

This 1956 Fender Precision Bass in Black has been refinished at both the neck and body, presenting as a well-used early example with a direct, fundamental-heavy response. The alder body and maple neck deliver a clear low end with a dry, punchy character that sits forward without excess overtones. It has undergone a number of changes over time, including a replaced logo, repaired headstock cracks, a replacement Seymour Duncan pickup, and a replacement pickguard.The instrument carries a signature attributed to Noel Redding, though no documentation is included to verify its authenticity. Wear throughout is consistent with regular use, and the refin shows expected signs of age. With its structural repairs and practical updates, it remains a solid, functional Precision Bass with a straightforward approach.
