For many the Precision Bass is perfection. It is a straight forward simple design that just works! It worked in 1957 and it still works today. Our 5730 comes standard with a J style 1.50” nut width. You can also dress it up with blocks and binding. You can further customize this design by adding a J pickup in the bridge position or use Novak Bisonic Pickups instead of the P pickup. If you can dream it, we can build it! For something really special add a Spitfire tortoiseshell pickguard!
