Machines Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Looks a bit tatty ! I'd want a discount for all those scratches. Quote
The Burpster Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Beauty is they say in the eye of the beholder.......! Looks like an old knacker to me, but then what do I know? Quote
Rich Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Christ, you can almost feel the mojo leaping off the screen. I'd give it house space any day. Quote
The Funk Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I love the rosewood boards with blocks and binding. I've got a maple '77 with blocks/binding - I'm considering having the neck cloned but rosewood-ed. Quote
stingrayfan Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 "Ah... you're interested in one of our [i]Emperor's New Clothes[/i] models, Sir. Let me just have a look at what it would have sold for in 1975 when it was deemed firewood, then I'll multiply that figure by twenty. In the 1970s, all Fender basses were hand made by elves, y'know...." That said... Look at the block inlays. *Slurp* Quote
