highwayone Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 looking at a fender p on ebay thats ending later but can't make my mind up if it's a genuine one or not as the seller has only taken a couple of pictures. apparently its a MIJ one. Is there a fender expert on here that might be able to identify it as genuine? cheers. can't get on ebay at work to put a link up but the item number is 271003344261. thanks in advance for any advice.

pete.young Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 How do you know that it's MIJ, the seller tell you? It's not stated in the ad. If 'MPN' in the ad refers to the serial number, a 'T' followed by 6 digits would be right for a MIJ from 1994-1995. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lost track of the number of ads for expensive gear where the only photo is a badly lit low resolution mobile phone camera shot. Even if the seller is genuine it just makes them look dodgy. It can score you some cheap deals though, if you're willing to take a risk... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
