What makes you think it's a Fender? The shape of the headstock? It doesn't look like any Fender I've ever seen. But I'm not a bass player, either.
I'm gonna say not a fender

I added a photo of the back of the guitar.

May be a Fender neck, (maybe) but it's not a Fender body by any stretch of imagination.
That is a very strange pickup configuration and, according to that neck plate, is supposed to be a 1968 Fender instrument. The most valuable piece of that bass is probably the neck plate.
Thanks for the info! Saw this at a estate sale and thought it was pieced together but thought I’d run it by here. Have a great weekend🎸🥁🎸
Glad we were able to spare you some grief.
