    You can't list this titled as a '62 and take yourself seriously at the same time imo. We are talking about a half original neck, a pickup and a bit of hardware that is (when giving the benefit of the doubt) probably original. Just my opinion of course.

    Price drop to €4.250

    What a fantastic finish, I love the depth. Great stuff to look at for a long time after a cheeky smoke.

    The Bicycle Thief (Bob Forrest, Josh Klinghoffer) - You come and go like a pop song. One of my favorite albums. I finally managed to get this album on vinyl. These are pretty scarce as only 500 are made. When offered for sale, the additional 7" bonus is often missing.
  6. SurroundedByManatees
    Correct, could be up to 1982

    There are fake L series plates available on "every corner". Though I couldn't tell if this one is authentic or not. There could be some variation of course. Decal is definitely not original, not even partly, because spaghetti type logo. Othwerwise I'm tempted to say the neck is original based on the shine of a well used brazilian rosewood fretboard. I agree it looks light in colour though, and the grain pores seem less typical at first sight. 🤷

    He won't be disappointed!

    These listings of premium priced basses are totally made up by some clever bass players, to show their wives/husbands that their 6k basses are quite cheap actually.

    Feeling fancy with this one:

    That one looks nice too! It's a 34" scale though, which will be quite a reach to the first positions. I briefly owned a white falcon bass which was a longscale also. It was awesome sounding, but a very large instrument. The shortscale feels way more comfortable.

    O boy, what a beauty. Enjoy!

    For sale is this Gretsch Broadkaster bass. It’s a Japanese instrument, not a cheaper one from the Electromatic range. Technically the bass is in very good condition. All hardware and electronics work like they should. The neck is straight with frets with little wear. Playability is great with a low action. The finish has developed a cloudy blush, possibly because the bass had been in the case for a long time. There are specialized blush erasers available for this kind of lacquer issues. Otherwise the bass has few usermarks, and I haven’t seen any damages. The bass is strung with flats and sounds great. The original case, certificate and other paperwork are included. €1.350 I am located in the Netherlands, but happy to ship at buyers risk.

    Custom shop often do convincing relics, I like them! The pickguard is totally completing the right look, very nice. (I can't understand why CS basses come with the fugly torts, just make them a bit more expensive with a real celluloid guard).
