Hello!
I want to start playing bass, and being a huge Beach Boys fan, I wanted to get a bass like the one Brian used when performing live with the Beach Boys in the early days. I know he often had The Wrecking Crew playing on records, but as far as I know, a fender precision bass was often used. Brian had an olympic white precision bass. After doing some research, it seems he got it sometime in late '63 or early '64. Here is a picture of the one I'm referring to:
Fender is currently selling a '63 reissue in olympic white.

Thanks!
