    even though it's now sold, I once again pressed the 'report item' button and wrote: [b][color=#800000]"time and time again I warned you this is a fake and now the buyer has just been robbed of £331 !!!!!"[/color][/b] thats the max length of characters allowed otherwise I would have ranted more! - hope it helps the poor patsy that bought this piece of crap. I also sent the seller another message: [color=#ff0000][b]so you're gonna rob the guy anyway....and a merry Christmas to you..not![/b][/color]

    not only did I report it several times I actually chatted with a rep who only insisted I press the report button even though I told him I had, but I was talking to a guy who would only recite from some ebay book of 'dealing with your customer quotes' , it was like banging your head against a brick wall..... Some poor sod just spent £331 on a second hand Encore

    weird..the bid has dropped back to £205, the last bidder must have read our post and withdrew.

    [quote name='Acebassmusic' timestamp='1383734767' post='2268217'] My sarcasm was lost in the text..... [/quote]it wasn't lost, but I'm no less concerned

    [quote name='Acebassmusic' timestamp='1383727187' post='2268112'] He's amended his listing with "US FENDER PRECISION [b]STYLE [/b]BASS GUITAR" lower down the text......so that makes it all ok now.....unless you miss that bit of course..... [/quote]don't see how that makes it alright...what about the bidders? Can't really move the goal posts after the ball's been kicked.

    £215 and rising ....i sent the guy a message saying he's no better than a thief, seeing as he now knows it's fake and going ahead witht the sale anyway... He's going to ruin someones Christmas

    it's still up...bloody ebay!

    i told the guy it's a fake and he wrote back asking why i think that as he claimed not to know anything about the subject. So I explained and I told him to Google Fender basses and see if he could find one with that shape headstock. Then I told him to check out Vintage and Encore basses and the plethora of others. But he's continuing with the sale even though he now knows its a fake. I've reported it to Ebay with the 'report button' down on the bottom right of the listing. I know it's not really my business but I feel for the poor saps that are bidding. If you feel the same I urge you to press the 'report item' button too.

    [quote name='skej21' timestamp='1383418869' post='2264343'] It looks like Fender have based the new headstock shape on the classic 'peavey milestone' era headstock... [/quote]I think Fender fancy the new Encore basses....i think there's gonna be a lawsuit

    [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1383349963' post='2263610'] pretty... Would an Italia Mondial Classic float your boat? Black. Cash my way. [/quote]it might, I was thinking more classic, but it looks cool and retro...like a bass made by Lambretta, which isn't a put down....those Italians have style...how much cash?

    in answer to many enquiries: the front edge of the bridge pickup to the front edge of the neck pickup is 9cm which is the vintage position i think. i know you lot won't hesitate to put me straight if i'm wrong! also weight: The body has 5.9 inked in the Warmoth stamp and my cheap luggage scales show 5lb 4oz

    [s]this bass body will boast a beautiful flame when finished. It was difficult to photograph to show its real potential. Unmolested premium body still in its original box. (even smells gorgeous) Everything is routed and drilled ready for assembly accept the control plate, scratchplate screw holes and strap button holes. The pickup screw holes are there. If you're not familiar with Warmoth there's plenty about it on the web including what the RRP of this is body. Great opportunity to grab a USA made premium Warmoth jazz body. I'll consider offers of trades on this.[/s]
