backwater Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 This seller has a fair amount of 60's and 70s Fender parts for sale. Some of the prices seem reasonable but most seem a bit high (a pair of 60s strap buttons for £55.00?)

BigAlonBass Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I love the idea of putting "furrels" on my Bass. I NEED them NOW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 On the one hand a useful source of ( not cheap) spare parts but on the other he's offering to break intact oldish instruments...I guess it depends if you regard an instrument as a lump of wood with strings etc or as something more valued and maybe esoteric?

Dr.Dave Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 The seller? - well , I've shifted 2 or 3 worn out and sub standard bits off my 73P for daft money and replaced them with better quality new parts for a fifth of the cost - so I'm not really in a position to call him worse than sh*te , am I? Point is - if you crack the pickguard on your pride and joy vintage instrument...... a £300 30yr old replacement is no more original to you and your bass than a £15 one from Axes r us. So why bother? I don't get it. But that didn't stop me taking a fast buck from those who do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGit Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I'll be interested to see how these sell as I still have a box of bits off my 62 P bass .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
