lancaster Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Hi folks, In the late 70s early 80s Fender produced the Lead series of guitars, in the references I have found they say that a Lead Bass was also made can anyone provide a description or photo. Quote

alyctes Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Better looking than most Fender basses, IMO, but I bet it tended to neck-dive. Quote
