OldGit Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 He has a nice P too [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1966-Fender-Precision-Bass-Olympic-White-66-65-Vintage_W0QQitemZ270535945156QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item3efd32ebc4"]66 P bass[/url] Quote
warwickhunt Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 His feedback recently showed that he'd also sold a vintage Fender gold sparkle P bass but as it has slipped past the 90 days you can no longer view the link! Considering how rare they must be he's one hell of a lucky guy to have found a matching pair! Quote
Happy Jack Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 I still don't believe that's the original paint-job. The U/V photos are a nice touch, though. Quote
karlfer Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Original paint or not, OH MY GIDDY AUNT! Quote
Sibob Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 I did wonder about the UV photos, is it to prove something about the finish being original?? Si Quote
chris_b Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 That bass doesn't look played at all! Quote

Si[/quote] It shows the watermark in the glitter paint to prove it's not a forgery. Otherwise, you could make loads of 1964 Precisions by running them through a modern colour photocopier. Oh hang on, wait ... Quote
warwickhunt Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) So now that the auction is ended it does make me wonder why most of the images have been removed... Oh no I remember: taken from the previous time it was listed and discussed! [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70234"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=70234[/url] [quote name='wateroftyne' post='680255' date='Dec 10 2009, 01:59 PM']...but if you're hosting the images yourself, you can include as many as you like in the main description with no charge. Why the seller would go to the effort of typing a description as text, pasting it into an image, saving it out, hosting it and then linking to it is a mystery to me. Unless being able to delete the image after the auction closes, and therefore all record of the text of the auction, is useful to them...
