Fernandes bass?

Hey BassChat,
My friend brought the bass you can see beneath for £50 from our local music shop, it has a stunning tone to it considering it only has P bass pickups. I'm not too sure what it is, its 3/4 scale and I've seen a Fernandes Bass that is VERY similar to this any experts that can help me figure what is it?

Cheers for the help guys

Looks way too "budget" to be a Fernandes - they have done some nice shortscales but this isn't ringing any bells for me.

However you'll find a pretty comprehensive archive of Fernandes catalogues between 1973 & 2009 [url="http://www.fernandes.co.jp/others/catalog/list.html"]here[/url] - might be worth a look (if you've got a spare afternoon!) just to make sure.

Jon.

Only!! P bass pickups can sound just as awesome/terrible as any other IMHO.

Other than that I can't really add to what the others have said.

Stick some new pickups in there when you get a chance and maybe turn it into a bit of a project bass.
