Paddy515 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Anyone care to speculate as to this bass's origins? Fuji 70s? Has fake F on headstock. Owner has no clue. Thanks and regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Looks like an MIM standard with a 60’s decal and shell plate? What’s the back of the headstock like? Looks to be in the Brown sunburst finish too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I’m going with my original plan after seeing the machine heads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Someone has sanded front and rear of head to get rid of decals. although I seem to recall that mightymite necks look a lot like Mexico fenders. Could be that too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BreadBin Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 It's not old - look at the truss rod adjustment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Tuners & that truss adjustment aren't something you'd find on any 70s MIJ bass. Looks recent to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy515 Posted June 10, 2018 Author Share Posted June 10, 2018 Guy has removed neck to post pics but bass is now not for sale any more due to him thinking its something more than run of the mill but doesnt know its value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreadBin Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 He's deluding himself, if it was valuable it would still have the serial number and where it was made marked on it. The only reason to remove those marks is to try and cover up it's humdrum origins - which given that the body dates from 2000 is almost certain.
