(coming away from the neck, in this case!) :- ....

Interesting ... any logic behind that, or is that typical of EBMM ?

what happened to the 40th Anniv. logo (?) :-

update: they're the HE/S version :- http://www.delano.de/xtender_4_he_s/xtender_4_he_s_details.html http://www.delano.de/pickup_overview/xt_4/xtender_4_listing.html

??... not sure what on earth is going on there (??!!!!!!!!) - I meant 'AT' Sandberg but got this and unable to even edit it................(?)..................BUT will let you know if it's the HE or HE?/S asap. Weight is precisely 9.0 lbs (on the digital scales)

I'll check (myself, if possible & with Gregor @sandbergtony

currently ON-HOLD

top looks like 'zebrano' (possibly stained or tinted?); some photos of my zebrano topped Pedulla TB5 - the grain on mine is more tight/even, but it does seem to vary quite a lot:-

+1 (?) :-

... thanks thought so; intrigued to know which (anon.) 'luthier' dated the bass (?)

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202402946661?ViewItem=&item=202402946661 .. is this correct? I don't know these 'classic' Fenders so well, but the serial number (according to the Fender site, where it's not actually listed), 22-frets, open-headstock truss-rod adjust .... don't look right for 79/80 (?).

also potential interest in trade for a 4-string fretted (high-end/vintage) - of same value or +/- ££ (PM)
