mike f Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) This is a wonderful bass guitar. Made in Japan, has a serial number beginning with B which I think puts it at around 1999/2000. I understand that Fender used EBS pre-amps, for a short period, before changing to cheaper Fender pre-amps. I have an e-mail from EBS I can forward which explains the layout of the controls. Basically it is always active with the toggle switch going between two tone settings. The control knobs are pick-up pan, volume, treble/mid shift and bass. The back of the neck has been refinished; the very glossy laquer has been taken back to a more satin finish. It is for sale for £525, open to offers. If you have any questions I'm more than happy to answer them. Thanks, Mike. Edited October 5, 2009 by mike f
Marcus Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 pics ? possibly interested - what's the weight like ?
mike f Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 (edited) Hello there Marcus, It weighs 9lbs. Pictures added now. My apologies for the lack of quality. What looks like a mark inside the lower horn is actually a reflection. The bass is of far higher quality than these pictures! Mike Edited September 19, 2009 by mike f
mike f Posted September 21, 2009 Author Posted September 21, 2009 (edited) I should have pointed out that I won't be after a trade for this. Sorry to have left that out and thankyou for the responses I've had so far. Mike Edited September 21, 2009 by mike f
