Watch this come back as a "real" Fender ... Edited June 17, 2008 by OldGit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budget bassist Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Yeah i noticed this earlier, if anything it's worth less than what he paid for it new. I don't like EMGs and they're the only REAL mod on there, the rest are just cheap cosmetic mods. And the EMGs are passive anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 [quote]The original Duncan design pick up are in the bin where they belong.[/quote] How to make yourself look stoopid. Did he really put perfectly good pickups in the bin? Even if he had a valid reason for not liking them he could have sold them separately. The duncan designed pickups on basses I've tried (eg daisy rock) have all sounded very good to my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to have forgotten that second hand things are generally worth less than new things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
