Mad sander attack, or something else.... Edited January 24, 2014 by spacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I would have said that the head is smaller than it should be. Look how close the decal is to the edge as well. I've no idea why it would be smaller though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacey Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 It is remarkably clean as well for a 36 year old bass that would have been poly laquered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 1978 wasn't exactly the high water mark for quality control at Fender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacey Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Actually if you look at the only wide picture, the headstock just does not look right at all ? Am I seeing things here ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Si600 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) The bridge isn't setup properly either, but that's hardly a real problem. Did 70's P-Basses come with white pickups? It does look in very good condition for a bass that's nearly as old as me Edited January 24, 2014 by Si600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
