    the Ebay listers not been back yet to answer when it was used in the Vibrators, doesn't know if it's a MIM (as he only plays a US Fender ) & to answer what it actually is, or was...but the pots are 1992 he tells me

    well there had to be a catch somewhere, its not truely an 'Attitude' they were called a ATT-Plus M, 2002 only I think (?) and this one has had a J pup added and paint removed....even so quite a rare old thing...too far for me collection only.

    [quote name='Marvin' timestamp='1376226556' post='2170973'] Outrageous! Are there replacement pickguards for these though? Unless it's on a white bass I have a deep seated dislike of white pickguards. :/ [/quote] thought it was just me...gota be black on a 3ts....i rarely see bad press on these Vintage PB's.

    Just noticed something interesting on an Ebay listing that made me think...why do they do that? ....when Fender put a serial number/inspection/date ink stamp in the body pocket why do they apply the stamp before the paint has been layed down, hence not finished before stamping? Got to be a reason but why?

    [quote name='BurritoBass' timestamp='1375884938' post='2166923'] OK, sensible reply then - I think the answer lies within any genre being diluted. The early disco stuff was great music but once it catches on, the bar is somewhat lowered and acts of a substandard nature kick in - this is why a genre sucks. I remember in rock circles the debut Guns 'N' Roses album coming out in 1987 and it was fresh and exciting. By the time Nirvana came along we had 1000s of clone bands who were mostly awful so Nirvana broke through. Same with Britpop, any genre. I guess this is why Disco sucked even though a lot of it was actually very good. [/quote] +1....I hate the term/cliche/tag [i][b]'Disco'[/b][/i], makes me cringe, it seems to cover anything from the late 60's/early 70's stuff by say O'Jays, Trammps etc which to me was simply a fair tag for decent danceable Soul, R&B (proper R&B not modern application of the term) popular in the mainly underground gay clubs, to seemingly anything in the 70's with a bass/snare 4/4 beat....FFS I've even seen ELO, Bowie, Stones, The Wombles, Nolans and that 'We got a great big convoy' stuff labled as [i][b]'Disco'[/b][/i]...its all simply pop 'n rock ain't it? ....& as I often say, life's too short for cliches...
