seungkoo · #1 03-22-2010, 08:36 PM

Just a feeler. I think I have a sick disorder of wanting something I dont have...
Bought this over the weekend, I could return to the store but I want to see what I can trade it for.
57's p-bass: black/maple board/looks like a relic job

Also have a brand new 60th anniversary fender case coming in the mail this week. Paid $190shipped from ebay. I can throw it in for what I paid for.

Looking for trade offers. If someone wants to buy it outright cash price would be: $1250.00 shipped w/skb case

Now for pics:

Looks like it has a BadAss? Are there other mods, or is everything else stock? And are you saying that someone before you reliced it?

So what exactly is this bass. A home relic of a 57' or a factory relic? Is the bridge the only mod?
The exact title of the bass line would be helpful to me.

To be clear, I checked everything underneath the pickguard. Everything is stock except the bridge.

I bought this 2nd hand from guitar center. The relic job looks to be done professionally but who knows. Maybe it was just gigged real hard for 4 years?
I do no have the OHSC or case candy. Oh besides the badass bridge the only other mod is schaller straplocks.

I am not sure if fender offered a factory relic or not but it looks to be professionally done.

Dude, you're going to regret selling this bad boy.
Does the pickup have the raised A pole pieces? and do the neck and body have the same date? Reason i ask, is the body looks relic'd but the neck wear looks natural to me. Very nice....

seungkoo · #13 03-25-2010, 01:25 PM

the pole pieces are raised if I remember correctly. Im at work now but I will double check tonight.
Im not 100% sure but I will take pictures of the neck pockets tonight. The body and neck dates are very close to each other. 3/2006 and 2/2006
The body relic looks real good. Likke theres a coat of nitro on top of the wear. The neck relic does look like the previous guy stayed around the first 4 frets

returned the bass back to guitarcenter and order me a brand new blonde 57' reissue!
