Clarky Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 70s Classics are Mexican, not US made. By all accounts great basses through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorick Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I'd phone them up first to see if they carry stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Check out the Reviews and Bass Guitars forums (fora?) as I am pretty certain there have been positive comments about these basses by BC'ers; just to be clear, I've never played one!

firmo Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) I played one of these just before Christmas and loved it. I'd shop around though as there's a few places online selling them for £499-519 edit: GAK & Soundslive Edited March 3, 2010 by firmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJE Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 If it's any help at all I have played a couple of these and they are really good basses, a real step up from the normal Mexican made stuff. The ones I played were very well built and had a real nice feel and were really not far of a Geddy Lee the shop had in which was a couple of hundred pound more new. Like any Fender (well any bass for that matter) pick carefully, Fender particulalrly can sometimes be inconsistant, I have played some stunners and some real dogs in the past, so try find somehwere with a few in stock and pick the best. I dont think you will go wrong with on though and good for modding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 There's a US Fender (2008) for £550 ono in the for sale section: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=79003"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=79003[/url] Price includes shipping, that's a bargain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
