Hey fellas,
Just acquired this beauty in December...
My thoughts: GREAT "Fender" tone that doesn't break the bank! NICE BURST on this one!!
This was originally a small project bass - wanted to add a set of Nordstrand single coils, change the pickguard, and possibly add a pick up cover for a more "vintage-esque" everyday jazz gigger. I only got as far as having a black pearloid pickguard cut/installed, which I thought was cool spin on a plain black guard for this particular vintage color scheme, and is actually less "grey" than the pictures may lead you to believe.
Now I need the cash.
