This is just another one of those things you need for a proper restoration of your vintage Fender guitar or bass. This is a nickel-plated set from a 1968 Fender Precision Bass that's in great shape. Correct for any Fender electric guitar or bass from 1967 thru 1975. Can also be used on pre-CBS instruments because most people can't tell the difference. There's a nice patina and no pitting or oxidation on the screw heads and the threads are also in fine condition. ... more

It's kind of funny listing a part for restoration that needs restoration! But it's a genuine Fender knob from a 1956 Telecaster that is also correct for Precision Bass.

It can be repaired by bleeding solder into the hole and then redrilling and tapping it for a new set screw. I've done it with ... more

This guitar has a few thoughtful modifications, and all the original parts are included
The original bridge was replaced because its design wasn??t very good.

The plate includes five mounting holes, but this Dano model only uses three screws, so only three of the holes are used. The plate... more
