it says Fender but...

[Rumbledore]

... it’s made in Mexican and i don’t know if a professional would plop down monies on one and i could be crushed by the Fender gods if i have one in the wild?

 

[creaturegods]

I think you might need to take a break.

 

[Rib 13]

OK?

 

[hypercarrots]

looks legitimate to me

 

[Ghastly]

Yea, that looks authentic, and a great deal. If I lived closer, I'd grab it myself!

 

[Old Blastard]

If it says Fender and it's a Fender, Fender made money off it, so Leo is happy. Now, if it says Finger, the gods will smite thee with great force.

 

[Garret Graves]

There’s a picture or link? I see nothing but text

 

[Garret Graves]

And what is a Fender god? Who are these people patrolling gigs to make sure you have a Fender? I want to follow them around with a bullhorn and shout them down- they are far from the only game in town in 2018

 

[gln1955]

I voted, but I have no idea what I voted for.

 

[RobTheRiot]

I think Basses made in Mexican are pretty ok nowadays, no?

I’m not voting because I see no picture, and quite honestly I’m a bit confused.

However, good luck in your quest!

What?

 

[Turnaround]

You should keep an account of the mysterious classification. One string is both the same.

 

[Gluvhand]

I like eggs.

 

[jd56hawk]

I have to question the headstock...the logo looks, well, you know what I mean.

 

[bobdabilder]

I would use titebond 4 on that one.

Well, there are a lot of reasons why I'd . . .
I'd drag a girl such as yourself back to this . . .
plastic hotel room and . . .
rip you off for spare change to run a . . .
to run a vibrating machine attached to this queen-size,
bulk-purchase, kapok-infested,
do-not-remove-tag-under-penalty-of-law type bed and . . .
and make you take off all your little clothes . . .
until you are nearly STARK RAVING NUDE!
(Save for your chrome-with-heavy-duty-leather-thong
Peace Medallion, heh . . . )
And make you assume a series of marginally erotic
poses involving . . . a plastic chair and . . .
an old guitar strap while I . . .
did a wee-wee in your hair and . . .
beat you with a pair of tennis shoes . . .
I got from Jeff Beck

That's too much to fabricate willy-nilly. I think this really happened. But maybe the Mexican leather thong said fender on the inside? The guitar strap was Victoria's Secrets no doubt.....

 

[jnuts1]

ok guys slow down. let me translate.

Hey should I get this fender? I'm no totally sold on them but everyone seems to think I need one to be pro. but it says made in Mexico on it and I'm not sure a real pro would buy a Mexican fender. but if Fender is the end all be all will I be a sucker if I just don't get it for this price?

this is what I got out of it anyways.....

 

[mapleglo]

I'm not a real pro, but I do own and play a Fender Precision that was made in Mexico. I did a few mods to it though.

425 Precision
