geoffbassist Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 jackson a great guy and this is a really cool bass. Ive played it and it sounds wicked.......
Broken Hero Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Just out of interest, what have the old bridge-cover holes been filled with? Are they screws, or some kind of stud? Looks really really nice by the way! Where are you based? If geoffbassist has played it and he is in Leeds then I'm guessing somewhere up north?

TimmyC Posted April 3, 2008 Posted April 3, 2008 Shame it's been fitted with a badass otherwise I might be tempted...
jackson Posted April 4, 2008 Author Posted April 4, 2008 hi guys, they are the original fitting screws and im based in leeds. The bass sounds wicked with the badass, come and give it a play......... heres some more pics to tempt you

Don't think so... but I'm no real Fender expert [/quote] I'm 'certainly' no Fender expert I assumed that if Fender USA make it then it's a fair bet that it'll be knocked out elsewhere. I had one of these (USA made in 91/92 I believe) in black last year and I have to say that even with the original stack-knobs, ashtrays, case candy and tags supplied AND a J Retro fitted, I hawked it up and down the sale thread for a month @ £600ish until I found a buyer in my home town. Lovely looking bass though, good luck.
