Chairleg Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271003344261?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 It is clearly listed as a Fender. and can anyone tell me what MPN stands for in the item description box? If it stands for 'Manufacturers Part Number', then this precision has a serial number with a 'T; prefix which I understand is a 'Tribute' model. I am assuming that if it isn't the real thing then they probably don't know as they have invited prospective bidders to go and have a look at it.

Musky Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 That's not a Tribute series, it's probably a recent MIJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musky Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 [quote name='Twigman' timestamp='1340407288' post='1704268'] 94 MIJ [/quote] I think you're right. T0xxxxx serials are 2007-2010, but the nineties T serials were followed by 6 numbers which could start with any number including a zero.

ash Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Hi I managed to get this as the seller was fairly local to me, football was on, not much info on the listing so I took a gamble and got a bargain I think! It's a '94 'made in Japan' virtually mint and super light, plays really well, I gigged it last night and got real compliments on the sound of it. This will be my primary gigging bass for the moment - I've been getting a bit worried about taking my '82 JV out to rowdy pub gigs lately!

ash Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Thanks chaps, yes one of those rare ebay bargains - it's got a slightly deeper neck compared to my JVs but much lighter in weight - its a classy bass and I would've happily paid more, these 90s MIJs are well worth scouting for.
