Hello! This is supposed to be a fender body from the 90s apparently alder, but can’t seem to find anything about the finish, anyone knows the name? Maybe it’s not fender?…could it be Antigua?

Thanks for helping!

Love that oldschool Kahler 1026-BD Heavy Resonator bridge! Looks a lot like the bridges on the 1980 Precision Bass Special, Fender's first active offering, but the saddles are different. 

 

I'm a bit thrown by the hole below the bridge. I've seen those on 1980s US Fender bodies, and on few else. Do you have pics of what it looks like underneath the pickguard? I'm wondering if this actually could have been a Precision Bass Special. That would be routed like this, with an extra channel to a battery box on the back (but minus the bridge pickup route, which was added later), but I don't think it came in Antigua:

Could it be a P special that has been modded to be a PJ at a later date? That third knob (furthest from the jack) looks to be in the wrong place. Looks like a decent job, mind you.
