vintage bass tuning question?
hi i just got a fiesta vintage fender precision bass from guitar center and the tuning on the knobs to tune on the machine head, i have to move the tuning knob downward to tighten and upward to loosen can any one tell me if thats ok? is that how they were made back then or so i have a problem?? please help
*or do i have a problem
on the original Fender basses, the tuners did work "backwards" from how they turn now
"some" of Fenders reissues, are the same
as a tribute to the old ones

my main baby, is a '61 P bass, which is "backwards"
they switched over some time in the early '60's,
don't remember which year, tho
