Based on pricing I assume it's made in Japan or Mexico ( if that matters)

[AndyTravis]

Part Number starting with 014...

Mexi?

Jap Sigs are starting 02...
Other Mexi 013...

Hmm.

Not for me this one, but, Fender may shift a few.

The Rodger Waters Signature . You take it to an Album session , your guitar player plays the bass for you . That's the only way it would be a true tribute bass .

Would it have [i]killed[/i] them to put black tuners on it? The black-on-black-on-black of the body makes the headstock look completely washed out.

Waters was a huge hero of mine.... but as a writer/composer not a player.

Bit of a pig isn't it?

Did a quick google - his most recent bass ( he seems to have had a number of black Ps including one with cream Dimarzios) has black body hardware but chrome tuners.

So I guess they are trying to be faithful to the real McCoy.

I won't be buying one mind.

Works better for me with a chrome bridge:



But either way, not for me.

That guy does not suit that guitar.

Would work even better in a dark room with the door shut. Not for me either.

I was wondering how long we'd go before that got mentioned.

Andy Fairweather-Lowe? He's class, and very stylish.

I don't doubt, just looks a little odd with that guitar.

You can't see his dayglo orange Bermuda shoots and electric blue winkle-pickers from this photo, Marvin

[Marvin]

On closer inspection I'd say that tie used to be sunburst and Wayne has attempted to chequer it. Always difficult on a moving target.

I take it all back then. Anyone who wears electric blue footwear has the upmost taste in my book.

Trawls memory banks - wasn't he the guy that did Wide eyed and legless around 1979?

Looked a bit different then, but didn't we all!

Indeed mate as this pic proves.

[wateroftyne]

He's hilarious... I think he tours with Rog to keep him company, or something.

He gets one solo a night, and although he's a great player, he usually just blows it by making a din. I like him a lot. See from 3:40-ish here:

[waynepunkdude]

Oh he from Pink Floyd, I though he was from Queen.


I should be banned from these threads.
