2x18 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) Looks like an aftermarket neck plate and the photo of the Fender hang tag is for a Jazz bass not a P-Bass -- No serial no -- I would be very wary!

Seller seems more interested in showing some scabby old hang tag & a £5 Ebay fanboy neckplate than the actual bass. I'm sure they've got nothing to hide, though. Edit - pretty sure that's the first AI-generated sales pitch I've ever read. Edited December 6, 2023 by Bassassin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’ve noticed the emergence of eBay listings with this obviously AI generated wording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 "...has a total of 20 frets on its pine fretboard" PINE?? Really? There are multiple red flags fluttering in the breeze right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) Its a Squier Affinity with a fake decal and a shítload of aftermarket parts. A photo of the back of the headstock showing the serial number is conspiculous by its absence.

That’s what I thought too and the hang tag is nothing to do with that bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowla Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 That description is utterly ridiculous. It's a shame the AI can't help them out by reading the headstock on this one... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116000116589 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor J Posted December 14, 2023 Share Posted December 14, 2023 If you wanted to take your playing to the next level, that's why. You fellas must be happy with the level you're already on. This is not the bass for you, only for those looking to move to the next level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
