Happy Jack Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Anything the non-expert should be told? Looks like a nice, Oly-white P-bass to me, but the deliberately vague description (from a pro guitar dealer, too) suggests we're not getting the full story. Quote
molan Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I like the checked paint on the matching headstock Quote
bremen Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Looks ok...oh sh*t, hang on..."it has just been in the loft for a few years" Quote
soopercrip Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Is the laquer 'crazed' because the decal has been changed and nitro on top of acrylic, or t'other way round? Maybe a squier masquerade? Andy Quote
Jazzneck Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Out of register gold ink on the decal and I can't see a serial number anywhere. ???????????? Quote

[/quote] Exactly what I thought. He says its a "70s stye headstock" - but I've never seen a 70s Precision with a matching headstock. And there should be a serial number somewhere. Quote

[/quote] I posted my refinished in the Precision Porn thread - it was done early 80's. Did have the serial on the Neckplate. That had the headstock sprayed to match the body (A sort of Blue/Purple burst). But it didnt have that Crazing on the headstock. This is a pic taken in about '93 - I know it was a legit 76 as well as knowing the Guy who I bought it off, I also knew the Roadie for his band from the 70's (they were a boiling under band called Ginty), and they hated each other! Far as I could work out it was refinished some time around 78/79. There may be some original bits there but i'd say a lothas been messed with - mine had the "F" neckplate with the serial on it and the trus rod adjuster in the right place (Heel of the neck) Edited November 28, 2011 by Nibody Quote
Musky Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 TBH it could be anything. Except a 70's Fender. Quote
