I suspect you need more info than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns-bass Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago On 21/11/2024 at 11:32, vincbt said: I have the opposite situation on my Precision, and I am not 100% sure how to explain it. The pots are 66 The serial number would point to 69 (264XXX) The neck is 71 I would have thought the neck plate with the serial number should be the last thing to go on together with the neck, so why would anyone put a 69 plate on a 71 neck escapes me... Did you buy it new? The interchangeability of Fender parts makes it hard sometimes. The accepted age is the newest part. While people love the idea of Fender having bins of parts and spent time cobbling together basses from bits, it’s nonsense. This was a factory with stock and inventory management systems and (for them) modern production techniques. This isn’t a workshop where they’d sometimes just build basses for the fun of it out of whatever parts were there. If you had the cash I’m sure they’d build you a custom order, but that’s about it. It was a production line process. It’s more likely that yours is a 69 body and bits and that someone has swapped the neck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
