Typical lovely Ibby with MAPLE board and one of the elite gear whores on Basschat. What's not to like! Good luck Tom.

Thought this went on Facebook in about 5 seconds flat Dan, or was it another dreamer ?

Keep this, sell me the Fender 60th and I'll go stay at my mother's in Mowden (BIG brownie points)

Jolly poor form boy, I expect high entertainment from your humourous adverts

Next ?

Right Tom, pay attention, I shall zay zis only wernce. It's not a Telecaster neck. Part of the evidence is that it says PRECISION on the headstock . As Jono rightly pointed out, it's from a CV 50's Precision. In this case, maple board on maple neck (now discontinued, replaced by White Blond). Folks call these a Telecaster headstock, but it's actually the original early 50's headstock style. This headstock style was brought back into production around '67 with the release of the Telecaster bass. Since then it's been used on all sorts of basses.

Very nice Tom. Looks like this one's gone (not surprising ). Next.

Thanks Gareth, very kind of you

Thanks Gavin, yup, simple bass but well made and specced. This was theoretically sold, with collection today. A young guy on Facebook. It came as no real surprise when he backed out late last night. So, still currently here. Well set up, frets fettled, good sound, nice neck and weight. Looks great with or without scratchplate. All opinions of course Cheers, Karl.

[quote name='Snook' timestamp='1476437619' post='3154253'] It possibly could be but it doesn't seem that way. The neck plate has not serial number etc, but that said I guess striping the body could reveal more? I don't know? Open to any advise if anyone has anything to check! But I've priced it hopefully at a price that reflects it isn't considered to be original, if that makes sense.... [/quote] Why not put a thread up on the Fender community forum, asking for thoughts? There are some VERY long term Fender folk on there.

Many thanks Gareth, Andy, Tom and Rich. It is a lovely bass but I'm looking at getting an expensive paint job, plus hardware, to create a sort of custom shop LPB, matching headstock, gold hardware 50's kinda thing. It'll still be worth nowt but it'll look good Must admit, bit disappointed the 'plate turned out so dark. But only myself to blame

Fender Mike Dirnt, 2008 made in Mexico. THIS is not a heavy bass at 9lb 4oz. These don't seem to come up very often.Before they were discontinued in 2013, they were pushing £800 new. The current Mex Road Worn model is over £1200 new. I have sprayed the white plastic scratchplate with 8 coats of gold and 6 coats of lacquer. Sadly, due to me being the Frank Spencer of DIY, I can't guarantee the paint won't explode off the scratchplate. ISSUES. The BadAss was replaced with a splendid Gotoh. Couple of dints on the headstock. Fender deluxe gigbag with the usual knackered zips. I've just spent £80 with Richie Tomson, full set up, fret level, fret dress. Neck is not baseball, it's 42mm nut, slightly deeper than normal C profile. Reason for sale is to fund customisation elsewhere.
