Ghost Rider Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hello, this is my first post on here so greetings to you all. I am quite new to playing & not sure about a good guitar or a bad guitar. I have seen a bass on eBay & wondered if anyone could identify the year or where it was made as fender squire precision bass guitars don’t seem to have a light coloured fret board with a black body so I am presuming its an older model or that the neck & body don't match.

I don't think the one you've found is an old one, the tuners are very different from the ones on mine (which were the same as Fenders).

Why don't you just ask the seller? If they're any serious about selling something, they'll be happy to answer your questions. It probably says on the back of the headstock or on the back of the neck at the heel where it was made and a serial number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Rider Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 Thanks for the info so far, I have contacted the seller but there has been no reply yet which got me thinking about it hence the post on here. The tuners don't look like anything I have seen before on a fender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 If the seller doesn't reply to contact then you shouldn't bid anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
