Shonks Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) i think that's a Badass bridge. The neck has no inlays but looks fretted.....( I thought it was only the factory fretless bass that didn't have inlays unless it was a fretless someone put frets on) I might be wrong.. but dodgy I think.....what d'ya reckon?

LukeFRC Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 the fella will send photos if interested he says, prob is genuine I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 The truss rod adjuster doesn't look like it's on the headstock. Which means it's probably not Mexican (unless it's a classic 60s bass). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Yes badass bridge and the pictures seem to show Fender Noiseless pickups. I got in touch and she says no serial number or country of manufacture on bass. Looks like a bitsa bass made with decent parts but doubt it's a Fender.

Shonks Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) def not a Fender. I got the pictures. Fretless lined neck. The string tree was moved to the correct position and a screw plonked in the old hole. Dodgy tuners, look like highway one style, that kinda thing anyway. Horrible ill fitting scratchplate and control plate. Pickups and bridge are all good though. Jaco portrait etched into the neck plate which I've seen on Ebay for about £15 Squire body I reckon worth bout £150 ish I reckon Edited July 23, 2012 by Shonks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Nothing seems to fit on it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjones Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Fretless? She doesn't say anything about that on ebay. Somebody's going to get a shock when they get it delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Foxen Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Reckon it is a bitsa from the many part body and the not fitting plates. The no marker neck looks cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 [quote name='Johnston' timestamp='1343045819' post='1744164'] So you are saying it's genuine:P [/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Intonation might be an issue too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
