Hobbayne Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 Someones gone to a lot of trouble to forge a fake American serial number which Crack converters has obviously used to verify its (ahem) authenticity. Quote
ash Posted August 30, 2019 Author Posted August 30, 2019 Everything......logo, tuners, bridge, serial placement, mismatched timber, burst, cheap looking neck, string tree, truss rod access, oh the neck plate may be real... 1 Quote
Bassassin Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 I'm no Fender expert but... Front screws on the bridge, cheap, unevenly laminated body wood, glued-on maple fretboard, cheap-looking neck timber, pressed-tin tuners, blurry, photocopy-look decals. The more trained eye will see much more but this is cheap Chinese tat - knock a 9 off the price and it would still be too much. Quote
hooky_lowdown Posted August 30, 2019 Posted August 30, 2019 "Jazz bass" on headstock, and P body with split pickups may be a giveaway??? Quote
