harrybgoode Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 http://www.ebay.it/itm/151304445529?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 take a good look at it, folks! It seems to be a late '84 JV, cream of the crop, but it's fully modded, never seen a CAR metallic finish, it's heavily modded and that decal... why a fender decal? Let me know your thoughts cheers from Italy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 hardly cream of the crop.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 It's in Hiroshima, Japan (I guess you knew that though) - probably more difficult to come by the genuine article. I'd be as concerned about the cost of P&P - 120 Euros no less!! You could probably find one in Cash Converters in the UK and come and buy it for less..

Ktmman Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Why is it on italian ebay if its in hiroshima? Odd innit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JapanAxe Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 And why is there a hole right through the headstock near the E-string capstan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmman Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) The neck has had a " made in japan" and serial number decal removed (badly i might add) . That is the exact position mij's and cij's have them.. Dont think JV's had them.. The only thing JV about it is the J and V on the neckplate !

Billy Apple Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 My JV has pronounced router hump by the pocket on the lower horn, which this doesn't. Mine has no serial number on the back of the neck, plus the date on the heel is feint due to it being underneath the lacquer. You'd have to see it in person to tell if the date had been written on later, and get a look at the pocket, routes and p's&p's. But, I'd pass.

Donnyboy Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Seems dodgy - there may be a wee but of JV in there somewhere...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neck looks like a 62RI. Squier P Bass special body, 62RI neck and a JV neckplate for my money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
