owd git Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Thanks Andy so there is an F followed by 8 numbers so how do I work it out please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Give us a picture and I'll tell you, the serial number isn't that much help. There was 'advice' given to Farida in 2006 ish to make their gear less fender esque (they ended up making for fender and squire incidentally) and they stopped their basses coming to the UK by about 2011. They are coming back though. There was the FPB precision in '8' and '18' guises, and the FJB in '6' and '20' designations...of which the numbers mean nothing really. I worked with them for a while and they made me 2 basses. Pretty cool. Nice guys too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
