Fender ABG Club

[LoveJackBruce]

Correct. Had 2 different black V2's and they both went back. But I have future plans to buy the new Kingman Shaded burst model, but haven't found that anyone has received this new model yet. Si I'm excited for LoveJackBruce and looking forward to his experience and review when his arrives.

G-Dog nicknamed me "Lovely" over in the Fender Rumble Club, if you find it to be easier. I think it's funny.

How about LJB?

Here's a picture of the first one I received that had low output from the E string when amped.View attachment 5171445

Well, would you look at that!!!

 

[LoveJackBruce]

How about LJB?

Sure. I tried to change my handle but was told I was really to established for that. I never realized I'd be on here so much. But LJB is cool with me

 

[Cullen G]

OK. I went with the New Kingman. Shaded Edge. Pre-ordered. They should be arriving in a few days.

I'm pretty sure I'd enjoy the Sawtooth, especially discounted. I'm also dang sure I Will enjoy this AEB or there's no helping me. I blew off the used CB-100CE knowing I could get the new Kingman. So I'll get my $$$ back on the injured BG-29 and move forward.

But then there is the Ortega....

You'd enjoy the Sawtooth even at $2000 ...

 

[LoveJackBruce]

You'd enjoy the Sawtooth even at $2000 ...

I still can. $400 vs $660 also. I probably should grab it on sale. I liked the Volume/Bass on the FA-450CE and the Jumbo size was just fine, I didn't even notice it. It was just a neck thing.

Mine is a V2 Kingman in black. No issues with it. I have had other basses that arrived with uneven piezo output, including a Guild Jumbo Junior that cost 50% more than the Kingman. I was able to fix it and it remains in the arsenal.

Sounds sorta presidential.

 

[LoveJackBruce]

Sounds sorta presidential.

Yeah, it does. And I don't care for that particular presidential affiliation... I should have gone with JustFrickingKrazy. But it tis what it is.

 

[Aussie Player]

Yay!!!!!

Looks like the first version of the V1 with the Fishman Presys rather than the Fishman Presys+

The bridge is different than the later revised version of the V1 (not referring to V2 short scale)

Looks to be in great shape!

Ok, ok, you raised my curiosity so I got the case out. Yeah, still mint, not a mark or scratch of any kind. More pics:

Only if your dentures are loose.

 

[Cullen G]

But you may have started something, B-Mac ...

Ordering was difficult ... I should have known when I was dealing with this address...

With all of the back and forth, I believed I had purchased a sheet of the Fender Aged white pick guard material that was 16" x 6" ... Oh noooo.

The sheet just arrived, and it measures 30" x 18"

I'm going to have to make custom pick guards to rid my shop of this big plastic sheet!

Make a pair of bookshelf speakers using the extra material.

 

[Cullen G]

I can just put it here with the rolls of leather ... aged patina copper ... rolls of hydro dip films ... carbon fiber sheets ... miles of exotic wood veneers ... dyes ... paints ... stains .... etc for speaker finishing! YUCK
