You seem to have a lot of early 70s Fenders. Were you born in this era or is there some link?
wateroftyne Posted August 23, 2009 Author Posted August 23, 2009 Well, kind-of. I was born in August 72... But get this: I've just had the neck off it to take a photo of the heel, and guess what? The bass isn't a 73. It's a 72. August, to be specific. Where did I get 73 from??

Does the serial number suggest finished construction in 73?
