JapanAxe Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Old-vintage-70s-MIJ-lawsuit-era-frteless-Precision-Bass-/121268228975?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item1c3c26536f I can understand how a lawsuit-era [i]copy[/i] could have a certain cachet, but an actual MIJ Fender? Or is it a fake!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 The seller states that they do not know what brand was originally on the headstock so not a genuine Fedner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanAxe Posted February 7, 2014 Author Share Posted February 7, 2014 Didn't Fender get instruments made at Fuji Gen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssentialTension Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) Yes, but that's not a Fender - check the headstock, the paintwork, the scratchplate etc. - and nor does the seller claim it is.
