Love the look of this but for this coin id expect at least the bad-ass bridge and a seymour duncan QP in it ?

A cynical money grab that has nothing to do with Steve Harris in colour, pickups or hardware appointments. It's just a standard P Bass with a silver/mirror scratchplate.

No West Ham sticker? 😂

Has `Arry ever used a black P-bass - not that I`m a major fan or anything but only ever seen clips of him with the blue or white ones.

Maybe VERY briefly in the very early days.... and of course he also had one painted black/white checkerboard...

It’s a puzzler, this. And it seems to be more expensive than the West Ham version.

IIRC double the price. i think the west sham one was £800 something

Yup, looks like a cynical cash grab to me, unfortunately.

I know it is "limited", but it is impressive that Fender have elevated the Made in Mexico range to £1,700.

😲😐 I can't see Arry or Maiden Holdings plc signing off on this utter tosh.

Around ‘81 he used a black one, so appears it’s based on that. But still, no thanks. The price is nuts.

Yep, this is the one I referred to....but it's got a 70's TV 'Fender Precision Bass 'logo, so that's another inaccuracy on the cash grab 50th one.
