The pickups: (has something write on the wood)

I attached the picture of the controls and bridge. Later I am going to attached the pictures of the pickups and tuners from the back. I use a eraser in the first tuner (but only one time to see what happend) if I pass more I think it’s going to remove more.

These are the controls:

I have looked the neck pocket and I don't see a mark, only that T on the neck and a number, and on the body nothing. Is it a fake Fender?

Now I have the bass. I think is the PB57-95 MIJ. It has some scratches in the body, but nothing important, the neck and the frets looks pretty good. Tomorrow I will test the sound and check the neck pocket. Someone know what kind of tool I need to adjust the truss rod for this bass?

It”s the first time that I see a Fender Japan catalog. Very useful info and advice. Tks! When I have news I’ll let you know

First I have doubt with the tuning keys but I don’t have experience with the MIJ fender basses. And I can’t try it because it’s far away from my city. Know based on all the answers and advices I am going to try to get a better price and take the risk.

Muchas gracias Fernando por la info y recomendaciones. Creo que el ajuste del alma lo tiene en la Pala, si te fijas en la imagen trae una entrada antes de unirse con el mástil, por ahí debería entrar la llave para ajustarla. Voy a regatear un poco más el precio para ver que consigo. Que bueno...

Here is too difficult to find a Pbass with maple fingerboard and I think not so much people appreciate a MIJ in my country. I think I am going to take the risk, and then post the picture of the neck pocket.

This is a used MIJ is from 1993-1994 according to the serial number.

Basswood is good thing? Or too heavy? I have a Fender Jazz American Standard 2013 and I love it. Great sound and it’s comfortable (Neck C modern) and have a lightweight Body. I don’t know the specifications of this bass. I wonder if the neck have a C shape And the weight It’s very important...

Don’t know because is far away from my City. I am from Chile. Here the fender basses are really expensive. For example an pbass American Professional can cost usd 2,100 new in the store. And a pbass American standard usd 1,400 used. This Pbass MIJ price is usd 850 I know in the USA cost around...

Can you help me to know if this fender P bass MIJ is real or fake ? Also, What is your opinion about this instrument?
