I've been looking for an older Fender Precision Bass. There is a 1972 model listed on Reverb and it is just what I'm looking for. Sunburst with a Rosewood neck...perfect. Contacted the guy and found out it has been sold. Hate I missed that bass. If anyone knows of something similar, please let me know. Thanks.

There are two different 78's (perhaps not the time frame you are looking for) at Chicago Music Exchange and Southpaw Guitars. See Southpaw. However for Early 70's I have not seen any.

Here another 78P bass, again not sure if you want earlier than 78 but I could only find 78's.

Kebo is a member and this looks like a great bass and great price.

I've been watching that one, all the way back to when it was originally posted with the funky graphic on it. It just looks so beautiful now, and for that price, if I had the money I'd swipe it up for sure! (Assuming it plays and feels well, etc.)

I played that 78 P Bass and it sounds great.Very punchy as most 70's P pickups are. Kebo (Kevin Borden) is a good guy and a very well respected dealer in vintage basses. The bass is in very good condition and weighs in at a pretty comfortable 9 1/2 lbs.He's located here in New Jersey and ships worldwide. http://kebosbassworks.com/
