epoxyjazzbass Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Hello, would like some pics of the neck... The date near the trussrod seems unreadable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_b Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 Pictures were taken by my luthier.Gitarion.pl is his website.I rely on his opinion.That man has writen a few books about guitars and I think he has serviced hundreds fenders.If you have doubts I will ask him to make better pictures....

epoxyjazzbass Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Yes please, I would like a photo of the neck date I have a doubt... as some early corona have lots in common with fullerton To my opinion some aspects are fulleron, others are corona, especially the neck Pots are the same on fullerton to corona from 86/88, and it is really difficult to read the neck date on these photos... But it looks like a 86 neck Well I think it really need a clarification. I present my apologize if I' m wrong; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_b Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 (edited) Ok.I am going to clarify it.Maybe you are right.Really looks like 86 or 84.I'll take the bass to my luthier.Pictures soon. What if pictures won't make us sure? Edited March 23, 2014 by jack_b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckendrick Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Neck date or no neck date... undated red bottom pick-ups and that colour of pick-guard with [i]that[/i] fleck pattern puts this firmly in Fullerton for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB2000 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 [quote name='gareth' timestamp='1395766681' post='2406017'] this might help [/quote] Doubt it. People spout a load of crap about Fender serial numbers. In '82 I ordered a pair of Fiesta Red '62 reissues and requested adjacent serial numbers. I got these in early '83 and the numbers were in the 16xxx's. According to that graph those basses would have been '86's. When in comes to Fenders there are very few certainties and a hell of a lot of exceptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epoxyjazzbass Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I can make my opinion on authenticity with multiple informations and détails. Sorry but the serial n° is high, that' s true as Gareth said. I don' t understand how 84 can be read on that the neck ? Neck is the only way to tell the year of the bass of that period (pots are all 82, serial is not adjacent, I just never saw a fullerton with a n° that high). But yes it' s possible. If I read this neck, 6 is the last n°, not 4 There is some détails that didn' t match for a fullerton. The logo is wrong. At this time my opinion is an early corona (86 ?) with some fullerton specs (not all of them) or a it can be a fullerton with a replaced neck. Yes some details change on fender depending on the period. But there is not a lot of exceptions from a period... Just ignorance about details that we all have.

The logo is wrong. [/quote] That logo is perfect for a Fullerton model. It's the inaccurate one, before it was corrected on Corona models. I know this not through histrionic conjecture but because the instrument is exactly the same as mine. Also, I know of Fullerton serials up in the V017***s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epoxyjazzbass Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 No, the logo is not fullerton I have a fullerton 62 jazz bass bought from a renowed usa shop + Everybody can search for pics and understand that (Google ?)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) IIRC the Fullerton reissues of the stack-knob jazz omitted the resistors from the control set-up that were supposed to stop the tone controls affecting the other pickup. That is exactly what is shown in this photo from the linked gallery page - no extra resistors: Edited March 30, 2014 by JapanAxe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
