[/quote] I was going to ask the same - my guess is Fiesta Red, but that could be my monitor? Lovely colour either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basstardz Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 You give me doubt.. it's more approching seminole red, in the fender color chart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassmachine Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Also.the pot on the photo isn't original as it is an alpha pot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
three Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 This could be Morocco Red from the Fender a International colour series. There's some debate re: commencement dates, but I've seen Internationals advertised from '79 onwards - one of our Fender experts might be able to help? The International colours are wonderful IMO, especially Capri Orange (but if the advertised bass is Morocco, it looks lovely) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] There's a Morocco Red P on Andy Baxter's site at the moment and it does look very similar. But if I am reading the sales post correctly, this is a refinish and not the original colour, Basstardz is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basstardz Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Yes it's a refinish, that explains why the colour is difficult to identify;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vinorange Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 (edited) Does it look like it may have been white originally? There's a trace of white in the pup cavity and also where the finish has been sanded away on the bottom of the bass, it looks to be red over white? Also the pick guard looks like it was black - whether original or not...... Edited August 16, 2016 by vinorange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'd expect a scratchplate of that era to have thumbrest screwholes above the strings. Is there a serial number sticker on the scratchplate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basstardz Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 (edited) the scratchplate hasn't serial number maybe under the paint..i don't know. The white paint under the red is IMO the preparation paint. the price is accordings these modifications;-) Edited August 16, 2016 by Basstardz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
