Only 1 photo, vendor has zero feedback, what’s the worst that could happen? Quote
Beedster Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Another from that hotbed of vintage Fenders, the Canary Islands Quote
Beedster Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Seller has cousins in the north of Scotland in the same business Quote
prowla Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Well, it's travelled: George Gruhn is in Nashville and now it's in The Canaries. Quote
yorks5stringer Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) Wave goodbye to your £3,800...... Like the OP has said: the seller ( 0 feedback) has not provided extensive photos nor serial number etc etc Edited November 28, 2020 by yorks5stringer Quote
vinorange Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Bank transfer or cash is always a deal clincher for me esp with zero feedback sellers in the canaries...... Quote
mowf Posted November 28, 2020 Author Posted November 28, 2020 Not sure how useful a 12 year old letter of authenticity is either! Quote
yorks5stringer Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Anyone done a Google search with the image and seen where it has been culled from? Quote

Some photos would be good to back it up though. Quote

I suspect you’ve missed the key point, the bass is 100% genuine, it’s just in Nashville, not Tenerife Quote

yorks5stringer Posted November 29, 2020 Posted November 29, 2020 Can't find it on Google Image search nor at Gruhns, not even in their archive. An appraisal costs $250 for a 1965 Fender P however there. Quote
