Donald Dunn used a Fender '59 Precision Bass, which was originally mistaken for a 1958 model until after his passing. According to [Duck Dunn Remembered], the bass's neck, subjected to years of tension from Labella 0760M 110-052 gauge flat wound strings, required adjustment. Upon removal of the neck, the handwritten date "4-59" was discovered, confirming its 1959 origin. This bass, known for its combination of rigidity and light weight, was prominently featured in Dunn's book "Soul Fingers," as mentioned by Jeff Dunn and Leo Binetti.
