Cat Burrito Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Very cool Was 1906 a good year for Fender? Quote
LukeFRC Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 it's one of the FSR i think.... a '75 but with alder body? I just sold a Lake placid blue one. Quote
Sibob Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Omnomnomnomnom Is it a custom shop?....Seemingly a '62 vintage/reissue, but its got a 70's logo and 3 bolt neck? Colour me confused Si Quote

My one was pretty awesome, imagine a '75 ri with more balls and a thicker tone. Quote
Clarky Posted January 31, 2011 Author Posted January 31, 2011 Thats a good price for an immaculate condition special run bass with the case and case candy, in my view, especially bearing in mind a new American Standard will set you the back best part of a grand these days and an American Vintage is more like £1600 Quote
sshorepunk Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Niiiice, looks '75 reissue in special colour run to me, only other way to get something like that is the CS route! Tony Quote
noelk27 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Description and artwork don't match. Description states, among other points, "Stacked Concentric Controls". Quote
karlfer Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Definitely '75 re-issue (blocks/binding/3bolt/microtilt/bullet truss) but a special run. Fantastic with the matching headstock, only thing mine is missing. . Thanks for bringing that bass into our world Clarky , Karl. Quote
wateroftyne Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Very pretty! I've only seen a few of these before. Around about the same time a special run was made of these for Mars Music in the US. 80 of each (apparently) in LPB, Oly White and CAR. I wonder if these were part of the same batch? Quote

P-T-P Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I used to have a CAR from this series and the former bassist of a band I once auditioned for had one exactly like this, think his name was Andy Till. Quote
LawrenceH Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Heheh disappeared and reappeared under the correct title...for £200 more than before! Quote
