Don't do it! That's a fake Fender to my eyes!

Here are my european vintage basses; -64 Hofner 500/2, -63 Eko florentine mod no 690 and on the far right a 1980's Eko BA4.

Thanks for the number. I'm proud to be part of this particular group!

May I join? I have the shorties in my profile pic. -64 Hofner club, -63 Eko mod 960, a rescuedfromdead -61 Harmony H22. Also a Dearmond Starfire from -98 but I think it's a midscale. (my fiancee has a Squier vista series musicmaster and my son an Epiphone Eb-0 so there are quite a few shorties...

Do they make new ones like these?

My hollowbody family, updated.

Thump!

My collection. Love 'em all!

Well.... I'm still interested!

My surf green p-bass has CIJ body, MIJ neck and pickguard, AV bridge, tuners and thumbrest and a 1976 pickup.

May I request a membership number?

Thanks, forgot to say the Harmony is from 1961.

Don't know that I have a number, but here are mine! A 64 Hofner club bass, a 60's Eko florentine model no 960 and a Harmony H22 that has been brought back to life by mr Lestrange here in Sweden.

A hofner club bass and a Harmony H22.

I'm interested in the unopened chromes and the tapewounds for club bass. Would you ship to sweden?

I have an Eko model no 960 and it sounds great. If the price is ok I'd go for it. Does it have these same pickups as mine?

In 1977, at 13, I first realised there was such a thing as a bass guitar. Having failed BIG trying to learn to play the guitar, hating the way you had to play more than one string at a time, someone said "You should try the bass guitar". Having just discovered The Ramones meant my first bass...

Hi, I have one almost like that and have been looking for a case for a while. Would you be interested in selling the case separately? (had to ask :-) Mikbass

I came across an Eko Florentine Bass, model no 960, in amazing condition this spring. Funny thing is, it's natural/blonde and in all my googling hours I haven't seen another one like it.

Here's one, MIJ w 1976 pickup.

Currently four basses on my wall; Fender precision MIA 1975 Fender precision partsbass MIJ, CIJ, MIM, MIA Eko florentine bass, 60's hollowbody Eko acoustic fretless, 80's

Top, 1975 MIA Fender p-bass. Bottom, partsbass made from top Fender parts, some MIJ, some MIA with a 1976 pickup. Both are awesome.

P-basses for life!

How about this one; a 60's Eko Florentine, hollow body, model number 960. Cool looks and sound.

How about this? A 60's hollowbody, Eko Florentine mod nr 960 w arched back and top and some nice sounds.

Recently put this together from various Fender parts. Body CIJ, neck, tuners, pickguard, strap buttons MIJ, electronics from a 50´s classic MIM, neckplate aftermarket big F Fender and the pickup is a 1976 original. How´s that for a partsbass? It´s sweet!

Thanks, yes she is an odd little cat, a Devon Rex. And she gets pissed from time to time when I choose the bass over her. Then she comes and bites the strings. The strings are Rotosound all nickel rounds. I don´t remembe the exact name but I was after all nickel and tried them out.

With The Private Jets, red parts-precision w 70´s Dimarzio!

To my eye the bass has two different types of tuners. Two pre -76 and two post -76. I'd ask the seller about this too.

Ok, thanks! I'm leaning towards a soundhole option since I think it might reproduce the "actual" acoustic sound, rather than the sound of the vibrating body/bridge. I don't reallt have the terminology right since I was never interested in electronics before, but I guess you understand.

Plenty of info and jv-porn here! Invalid Link Removed

I have an acoustic Eko just like the one in the clip and I would like to put a pickup in/on it. All ideas are welcome!

Here's how I see it. The logo, tuners, thumbrest screwholes, case, the rosewood board and the bridge are not 60's. To me the bridge don't even look american made. Still, a nice looker. My all time best p-bass is a refinished -75 w ih a -73 pickguard and -72 pickup. But that's me....

Could it be that the original ones have a "waist" that centres the string midpost, and the reverse style tuners lets the string go down towards the front of the headstock giving you a better string angle over the saddle? That's my theory!

May I add that the specs you stated are the same as a couple of JBX jazzes that I've had. The neck plate is identical.

Playing my '75

Faced with the choice I´d...... sell my car and by both. But I think the ´62 weighs a little heavier for me. There´s something about the rosewood I can´t resist.
