Fender pre-CBS Club: pics mandatory!

We need more entries!
More pics,
More stories,
More details,
Did I say more pics?
If not, we need more pics!!!!!

Can't wait to see Ron's 63, but damn it people.....post some more pics of your basses.
These never get old, I've gone through this thread at least 5 times, & still not tired of them.

This bass NEEDS to be in here.
Mastermold, since this is your thread it's your call, but this bass is too pretty to not be in the mix.

I know he's got it listed as '65 but his pots are '64, I strongly suspect his neck is a '64

Which leaves me believing that everything on that bass (excluding the serial plate) was crafted before Fender's sale to CBS in early '65.

Again, your call, but I'd love to see that bass, especially being a lefty here where it belongs.
 
Always fun to share it. Gets, and always has gotten, a lot of gig action.

Yeah post 'em! The date thing is just for a club number, not to impede perfectly good bass porn. :smug:
 
Ron, Is this your first Pre-CBS?
Can't wait to see it, don't be modest, post lots of detailed pics.
Our bass porn needs are far more important than your needs to play it!
Lol

First one, yes indeed! I promise some detail pics when I get it home :D I've been through this thread so many times admiring everyone's gorgeous instruments... Leo truly got it right!

First one, oh you're gonna be beyond thrilled I'm sure.
Welcome to the addiction. Well, I'm sure you've been an addict, considering you've gone through with a purchase already. So I'll say welcome to the fix. Just know that your tolerance will immediately increase, be careful, you don't want to start selling your body for vintage gear.
Moderation is key! Lol
