The Bass Doc Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 (edited) Heres an example of an invisible neck repair - well I say 'invisible' but if you hold it it up in a certain light and use a magnifying glass you can just make out a hairline crack. A prize may be awarded to the person who correctly identifies the make and approximate year of the neck. [attachment=21872:DCFC0424.JPG] Edited March 16, 2009 by The Bass Doc Quote

thisnameistaken Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Looks like it came out of the Fender factory circa 1995. Quote
spinynorman Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Is it one of the ones Fender sued Ibanez over in the 1970s because they were so uncannily accurate and better quality? Or maybe it's off a Fenderbird John Entwhistle lent to Pete Townsend? Quote

US customs seized them all at the port & sawed the headstocks off, don'cha know. Definitely an Imaginez, from 1968. Jon. Quote
