itsmedunc Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 [size=4]It dates at 1976 made in the Fullerton factory according to guitar dater project but the neckplate says Corona California. The description in quite non committal. The neck contour on the same pic looks a bit too defined? It all looks a bit wrong really? Maybe its just me. Any thoughts?

LukeFRC Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 well it's real as in it exists. Doubt it's what he's half pretending it is. Quote
itsmedunc Posted June 13, 2013 Author Posted June 13, 2013 [size=4]Not enough screws in the pickguard, very clean bridge, shiny shiny paint job![/size] Quote
ash Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Body shape is wrong, parts don't match up - at best a copy body with a Fender neck at worst a total fake bitsa. I wouldn't bother. Quote
DarkHeart Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 is it my eyes or is the neck plate fitted way over to one side of the neck? Quote
Lozz196 Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 The baseplate should just have the big F in it, and have black rubber around it. Def wrong pickguard - prob due to added electrics but why wouldn`t you get a Fender one with the holes on the right places and sort from there. Neck/tuners look ok, though a bit shiny for a near 40 year old instrument. Prob why only one bidder as yet. Quote
gjones Posted June 14, 2013 Posted June 14, 2013 The shape of the headstock is wrong for a fender, which is probably why he didn't photograph it from the front. But £215 is not bad for a decent P/J as long s it plays ok. Quote
