yorick Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Looks like a refinish, and a none original scratch plate, but apart from that, loks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 Cheers Yorick. Yup, my thoughts as well. Would have liked some better photos, may persue that in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl.[/quote] I contacted him after it ended, he said it was a refin, the scratchplate was a custom job but everything else was original, he said it weighed 5kgs - I'd say about right for a 70s P. Shame he didn't include this in the ad as I think it put many of us off! Sounded a decent enough chap he said he would accept the start price if interested....going to give it a miss as I already have a 70s P bass.

noelk27 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Disgusting colour. Is it an attempt at Bahama Green? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonCello Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Yeah that is a vile colour and it detracts from what would have been a nice bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutton Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Personally I would never buy a late 70s Fender anything unless I had a go at it first. I've too many memories of dreadful Fenders of that period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
