I see what you’re saying there, I do look at the bursts colours as they vary quite a bit, the 75 he has doesn’t look very good to me, a 66 near me looks well sprayed I think 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some are so pronounced they call them target bursts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walshy Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I’ve got 5 or 6 Sunbursts in stock atm and they’re all significantly different from 63-72 and a 63 CS too. All beautiful but all different 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must not even look at this, too late, and there's loads of other guitars as well. Damm, another morning of work lost wondering if I can justify an vintage Fender. I do like the look of the 57 Strat, but I know nothing about these things. Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msb Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 I can’t justify the price of vintage Fender , and I ‘m an old Fender guy. However these days I seem to play anything but Fenders. Completely turned around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a bargain in the end! With all the extra costs, what will the buyer end up handing over to take it home? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaebass Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 I watched the auction online and was tempted to bid but without seeing it in person I decided not to, if all is good someone got a good deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame it doesn't have the covers, but a reasonable price nonetheless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns-bass Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Had a chat with these guys today and they have some great stuff. Mostly guitar, but this Precision looks like a beauty. No price listed on the website but from conversations it’ll be a similar price to that auction. https://mas-vintage.co.uk/items/fender-usa-precision-bass-whc-1975/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
