Help Identifying this bass!

[NachoConde]

Ive been searching around for a bit, and i know its a fender because in other shots you can see the headstock (not very clearly but just enough) but im not too sure about what model it is!

These shots are from a music video so they arent the best, but you can clearly see it has a p-bass pickup near the neck and a double j-bass pickup near the bridge, also its pretty easy to see the knobs just in case that helps!

Thanks in advance!!

i agree looks like a wierdly routed p bass deluxe, the pickup config looks exactly the same as the schecter diamond 9

This is the old MIA Deluxe model, changed for whats in that link just this year, should still be easy to find though.

oh good! I thought this might end up being some rare "only 50 ever made" bass, but luckily its not, ill search around for it and hope for a NBD to come in the near future!

thanks for helping to solve this "mystery"

Not a fender you guys... Schecter. I've seen adds for them. Precision deluxe styled, but with a different bridge pickup...

Nope. The bass in those pics is definitely an American Deluxe Precision.

I can guarantee you, it ain't that Schecter, its a Fender Deluxe.


The Schecter, is 21 fret, both the pictured bass, and the Fender are 22 fret.

The Schecter has its pickups labeled, both the pictured bass, and the Fender, do not.

The Schecter is passive, 3 knob config, both the pictured bass and the Fender are four knob, including one stack knob, for a total of 5 controls.

An older American Deluxe Precision with a badass II bridge.

As soon as I posted I looked back at the pick and noticed the knob thing. My bad, guys. But still, I never saw a fender with more than just a standard jazz pickup instead of soapbar, unless it was custom.

Roscoe Beck sig has 2 of those pickups...

Nope, it dosen't, they're different, the MIA Deluxe is a standard dual Jazz layout, rather than the Bill Lawerence design that the Roscoe Becks use.

The 5 string did, but they were made so they couldn't coil cut, where as the Roscoe Beck's could, and had the switches for it.
