zvirus Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Hi, Hmmmm.... dont like fake relics even more now hahaha: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Relic-Squier-Vintage-Modified-Precision-Bass-by-Fender/323387568429 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I think that this is quite well done. Looks rustic for a 3 year old bass in a tasteful way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zvirus Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) Sorry, "well done" relic is Bobby Vega`s bass not HOME made burns and knocks (to my taste) We all having different taste... Edited August 9, 2018 by zvirus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Not a relic fan and I don't like this either. The damage is so obviously artificially-inflicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigwan Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) It's better done than most of the belt sander crowd could manage, but the hardware relicing is a bit meh, especially the knobs and back of the tuners. The less said about that pickguard the better... Edited August 10, 2018 by Bigwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zvirus Posted August 10, 2018 Author Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Did not mention, I have got one some time ago for £150 with Seymour Duncan Pickup on board. This guy wants £500+ for a wrecked bass... Good Luck! Edited August 10, 2018 by zvirus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b7l4s Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Not convinced by that relic job... how did the tuners, neck plate and knobs get so beaten up, yet the back (where most basses do get scratched) is practically pristeen... and beyond that who is really prepared to part with a monkey for an abused Squire?

Baxlin Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Not for me, I’m afraid, far too dear for any Squier (certainly one with no provenance), and I treat my basses like I treat my cars - keep them pristine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
