Very early one too. Good score. I've been looking at a 91 model that's from the Japanese factory. What's a fair price for these £500ish?

Huh? I thought 5's all had the 2 soap bar pups? Jealous face

Was quite prone to pressure marks and indents because it was quite a soft way of finishing a bass. Knowhere do I claim it to be an "upgrade" in any of my adverts either on here or gumtree. Frankly people can be p*ssy about it but at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference. No I just accidentally picked up my blowtorch and scorched it. [/quote] [quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1416271120' post='2608651'] To be fair the satin finish wasn't too hard wearing, I see it as an upgrade- can always be sanded back to natural wood and refinished fairly easily [/quote]

[quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1416408832' post='2609900'] It's not relic'd! Where does it say relic'd on the ad? [/quote] Sorry I misread, this thread mentions relic. The for sale ad described it as a refinish or upgrade. I refinished and upgraded my toast earlier today. Was it an intentional refinish? Genuine question

We're simple folk. Pictures make us happy.

I see what you mean as that Lowend one has some figuring. Maybe the very plain woods got a solid colour finish and figured woods got stained ?

I'm sure I read in the past day or so the brass bridges were fitted. I'll try and find the info and double check for you. I've been thinking about getting a pro II lately. Let's seesome pics

That's different, in a pleasing way

A naked Pro II. Fairly unremarkable wood, I dont know what the original finish was either. [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/dazer/media/BASS/1353826_1392391965_zpse614fec9.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v93/dazer/BASS/1353826_1392391965_zpse614fec9.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Its already for sale on here. I'm kinda lost as to why someone would and then call it a relic. It's f*ckin burnt !!?

Oh no, you mean that 10K carl thompson won't make me sound like Les??

Love maccasar ebony. That's going to look terrific!!
