What Makes a Fender Bass Valuable?

  • Era: Pre-CBS Precision (’51–’65) and early Jazz (’60s) bring premiums; ’70s block/bound Jazz models are sought after.
  • Originality: Factory finish, pickups, wiring, and hardware add value. Matching headstocks on custom-color Jazz basses are a plus.
  • Condition: Clean examples fetch more—player-grade and refins still welcome.
  • Neck/Fretboard: Maple vs. rosewood, slab vs. veneer boards can influence price.
  • Custom Colors: Olympic White, Lake Placid Blue, Fiesta Red, etc., often raise desirability.
  • Weight & Wood: ’70s ash can be heavy—standout light weights may command more.

💡 Modded or refinished? Missing covers or case? No problem—send photos and we’ll price it fairly.

Why Fender Basses Stand Out

From the foundational thump of the Precision Bass to the articulate growl of the Jazz Bass, Fender defined modern bass tone—great news if you’re selling.

Quick Answers

Do you only buy vintage Fender basses?

No—vintage, AVRI, American, Mexican, and Custom Shop Precision & Jazz Basses are all welcome.

Do mods or refins hurt value?

Originality helps, but tasteful mods/refins can still fetch strong offers depending on parts and era.

Missing covers or case?

No problem—send photos and we’ll price it fairly.
