bremen Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 It's clearly neither a Fender nor a Precision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also say it's a perfectly legit Mexican Fender too. Really can't see anything wrong with it! Please, enlighten me as to you quarrel with this! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binky_bass Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 The clear issue here is that @bremen is in fact a time traveller as they appeared to have joined basschat one year before they were born... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bremen Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 I defer to Messrs Binky and Reggae. I'd never seen a Precision with the truss rod nut at that end, and the capstans look wrong. Finish is cheap looking too. Apologies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prowla Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 It doesn't look quite right to me, but then the camera shots are like they were done in a hall of mirrors. That said, this is one of my MIM Precision's headstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
