1970s Fender damaged neck finish?!

Dear Basschatters,

 

Does anyone have any idea what might have happened here? Looks like an epoxy/glue finish gone wrong/water damage maybe? I can’t tell if it’s damaged the neck or the wood. It looks more extreme than just nitro cracking. Any help/ideas would be hugely helpful!

 

Thanks in advance! 
 

Sam

Looks very much like water damage to a poly finish, the corrosion to the metal parts also suggests a damp environment. The wood might be ok but it would have to be refinished to remove the staining.

If you are considering buying it move on In my opinion.

thats water damage and doesn't look healthy..   If you have bought it ask ex Overwater luthier/painter David Wilson. Hes the master. If you have not bought it what Guy said. 

 

Pm me for David Wilsons number if you want his opinion.
