Dood Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Very nice. I had no idea of the value of my own pair. In comparison to other basses, I'd say they were worth it. Fender Japan's finest. Incidentally, they were Alder bodies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also has a Fender neck plate and a D-tuner by Hipshot (BT-2 same model of original tuners). Really good conditions to be a bass who is over 30 years old. Even the color is not the usual white pearl, I have seen very few of this metallic green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stance Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) You forgot to mention when very important details - these pickups are not your normal P/J pickups - the magnets are larger than normal (and they kick !$%!)

I always thought my 1985 version was Basswood. Not that it matters as it's a great sounding bass either way. But I never realised that Alder could be so light.
