A Fender JV Squier question (however it's piggin spelt!! ) Help please experts

This will put you right - http://www.21frets.com -
There's an awful lot of nice P basses up for sale at the moment but here goes.... This is my early JV Squier Precision bass - for those not in the know these are very special basses indeed and were made to the original specs of the Fender Pre CBS basses. This has the serial JV followed by five digits beginning number 2 making it late Oct 1982- January 83. It comes with the case it was originally purchased with and both are in excellent cosmetic and working condition. All hardware works as it should and the neck is straight with plenty of life in the frets and a working trussrod. The bass is light at just over 8lbs and balances well on a strap. The original pickup sounds just like a vintage P should and its currently strung with old mellow roundwounds. The original sunburst finish is in excellent condition with no chips or major scratches, there are some small blemishes consumate with age but only minor dings. The neck is lovely and clean with only a small scratch on the front of the headstock. All hardware is original however the scratchplate is an old replacement. The case has had a new handle fitted at some point. The bass plays and sounds superb and Ive not seen a sunburst one in such good condition. http://www.21frets.com

I had the chance too Jon but he messed me around for ages changing the goalposts of the original deal and price then finally pulling out. It wasn't worth the stress!

I've been in touch with him and he has a specific sum in mind that he'd accept for it otherwise he says he'll keep it. He seems a genuine seller - unlike other recent vintage Fender sellers mentioned elsewhere 😉. There's no harm in having a look Karl.

To allow the sale to go ahead is disgraceful - once again I'm amazed at how immoral eBay has become. Despite several reports of foul play this person has been able to sell an obvious fake. Initially I thought the seller was unaware that the instrument was bogus but having been told that the bass was not a real Fender they have chosen to ignore the friendly advice and have gone through with a sale. Surely that constitutes a fraudulent sale?

Yep another Akkerman fan here so him at Kendal Brewery Arts great gig, great players. He was hiding behind his amp having a fag and blaming the ciggy smoke on the valves cooking - great character I spoke to him afterwards and he even signed my Focus CD. -

Either very ignorant or another scammer is born Despite the odd looking ID stamps, the machine heads and decal are wrong, pickups look too new, backplate plating looks too shiny and wrong and the truss rod has the wrong type of nut. What do you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1969-USA-FENDER-PRECISION-BASS-COMPLETE-WITH-HARD-CASE/111485049623?_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D24932%26meid%3D5c7cecd71af0486e84003c249bd5d048%26pid%3D100009%26prg%3D10513%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D10%26sd%3D281469825444

I've asked if he'd post - waiting!

I thought the first bunch of Geddys were supposed to be a limited edition - hence the engraved plate - and they became so popular they made them into a full production model.

Glad you are happy with it - it's a lovely looking and playing thing but as I said too complex for a simple soul like me -
