About This Listing

1978 Fender Telecaster bass re painted in Black nitro finish (Original color sunburst).

Made in Fullerton, California.

it’s in very good condition with some nicks, dings and other cosmetic play wear.

I deliver it with other pickguard in black. The original Wide Range humbucker in the neck position sounds deep and warm, while still maintaining clarity. It has a lot of range when you work the tone and volume controls.

Pickup and the electronics/wiring remians untouched and intact, with no broken solder joints, no re-wound pickup. All original and correct.

The hardshell case is not the original one. Latches and handle are in perfect working order.

Curiosity: (in the last photo you can see how fender punctured the instrument to paint it)

I can send it a video.

Product Overview
The second version of the Telecaster Bass was introduced toward the end of 1971, having it more closely resemble the Telecaster Custom that would take the world by storm the following year. These basses have a 3-bolt neck, a humbucking pickup, and were offered with the choice of maple or rosewood fretboards. The original run of the Telecaster Bass (more accurately, a '51 Precision Bass reissue) can be found here.
