I was reading - (got a lot of free time as I'm retired) and I found a blurb about 'Employee' and 'Salesman's' and 'Sample' basses and guitars authorized by Fender Inc.
Has anyone run into one of these? I read that they have odd markings on the neck and in the pocket. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh - and I found prolly the UGLIEST SMARMIEST bass ever too! This is ' sick' - in the classical use of the word.

Perhaps if you wore a bag over your head to play it...................or TWO bags, in case the first bag failed.
