  4. Lot of $$$ for a Highway One in that shape. IMO.

    Serial # checks out as a legit American Fender, according to the Guitar Dater Project.
    I'm not uber familiar with Ps, but the font used for the 6 following the Z looks odd to me ? Maybe others will chime in on this ?

    The instrument is legit. The description? Maybe not.
    JPJ derived much of his "super fat classic tone" from Jazzes and Alembics. Not saying he never touched a Precision, but still...
    I might term it an amateur road-worn look...a little "forced"...but that's just me. :smug:
