Fender Mark Hoppus Sig. info

[coastal-tony]

I'm going to look at a blue Mark Hoppus Signiture tomorrow. Anyone know of any problems with these things. I want to slap my old fretless P-bass neck on it. By the way, I am only paying $250.00, and it is in pristine condition.

Sounds like an excellent deal...I own one in olympic white and have no problems at all. I've never heard of anyone having problems with theirs either.

So I get to the lady's house and she said her son is in college and low on $$$. I picked it up, perfectly in tune, perfect intonation, and has new set of wound strings on it. She throws in the amp, stand & a bunch of cables SWEET!

I paid $350.00 for the same thing in pretty horrible condition on E-bay. It's one saving grace is the fact that it plays, and sounds better than I would have expected for such a bass.

 

[Pennydreadful]

Wow. Good deal, man.

whats the address of this lady....i might need to steal her tv

IMO, no tone knob=not worth $250.

IMO... Installing a tone knob would cost all of $10 if you really thought you needed one.

I have a 64 T-Bird, 80's Gibson RD Artist (active), 78 BC Rich Double Maple Eagle (active), 2002 T-Bird and "lawsuit era" G&L SB-2. These all are pretty nice axes, but this cheap Hoppus, plays REAL nice, and the pick-up rocks.

I have never seen one ... how would you describe the neck profile on this bass ?? thanks

 

[GobBass]

dang...VERY good deal you got there..

 

[Earwigger]

I hate those Mark Hoppus things.. so much. Minimalist is not my thing I guess. The Crate amp is a great steal though.

Has anyone noticed Musician's Friend is now asking $700 for this bass?!

What was their old price?

 

[greeningep]

Well I think it was about 480 when it first came out, and since then I have seen it increase to 520, then 560, and now, 700.
