I traded an upright I was asking $1000 OBO and would have jumped at a $500 cash offer. So honestly I don’t care if it’s a fake or not because it sounds good and plays well. I was really just curious because moving on I want to be able to tell people what it is. As of now I feel like I can...

Thanks for the helpful info. Do these #’s mean anything? Also you can see some pieces of red finish in the routed out parts on the body, I saw some in the neck pocket as well.

Hey guys, upright player here. I don’t know much about slabs but I just traded an old beginner upright for this bass. Guy said it was a late 70’d Fender precision with a refinish. Seems like a solid bass and plays/sounds good. Just wondering if it’s a legit Fender. Here’s the photos:

Sound advice!

If anyone has any information on finding a set of George Van Eps bass bridge adjusters I’d appreciate the lead.

I’ll take the Spiro E if the pending sale falls through.

Still available?

Yes it is, it’s a 3/4

Texted you.

Here is a 1954 King Moretone up for trade. Looking for a Chadwick, vintage P bass, or maybe acoustic guitars, banjos, or mandolins. Has new helicore strings, bridge, adjustable endpin, and rope tailgut. Located in Sevierville TN, I travel a lot so don’t hesitate to reach out if you don’t...

Hey y’all, just picked up this ‘78 Musicman Sabre. I don’t know a lot about these basses, can anyone englighten me on any interesting facts about it? Also what kind of price range are these going for? Came with the original case and mutes. Everything on it appears to be original. Thanks.

I'll be traveling from East TN up to Hillsdale NY and then Hartford CT September 8th-11th if anyone wants to check this bass out.

Thanks for the response! I'm definitely looking for something primarily for pizz since I mostly play bluegrass or classic country.
