Great pickup for that price. Shoot put another 30-50 into it for pots, jack and cleanup. (maybe sand the body then seal it) Have fun!
Oh and LOVE those LOWDOWN bass heads. ( I have 2 of the 750 LOW DOWNS, VERY much underrated)

I was wondering if anyone would notice the line 6. Mine's a 400, I got it in a trade. The synth doesn't work but otherwise it's a pretty good head. I like this wannabe ampeg setting.

If you run the ampeg setting through an 810...you will love the tones even better.
And remember it goes to 11!

Im still not sure of the model. The tremor has the wrong pickup config and the rear strap peg is in the wrong spot. I have been combing through old catalogs on the fernandez.jp website and found the right body style, pup config, and strap peg but different headstock (1996 catalog):

maybe the neck was swapped in the past?

 

[No Malarky]

Life is too short to not indulge ourselves in occasional goofiness. For a mere 30 Clams, I would have also bought that fine mess.

 

[Rogatien]

Interesting relic job. I, too, would have bought it. That bass has a "dirty sexy" look, and I like bad girls.

 

[P. Aaron]

How Road Worn is done.

No sense paying extra for relic. Cool bass.

Nice find, and for 30 bux. I've spent more on a mediocre take-out meal for my family!

I'd prolly clean it and fix only what needs to be fixed and leave it as is. I'm too lazy to sand and re-paint, although it might be fun to tape the body off and hit it with a spray can of yer favorite colour.

I'm thinking the same thing, clean the funk off but leave it ugly.

Any idea about this one? Says Burny on the headstock. I love the OPs bass btw. I'd sand it down some and spray some clear on it.

I kind of remember seeing it in one of the catalogs but I don't remember which one. Looks neat though!

Mojo big time

This popped up locally. I'm still not sure why but I bought it for $30

The output jack is loose and takes some fiddling to work. None of the pots seem to do anything but it doesn't sound half bad. I only played with it a couple of minutes though.

Any ideas on year and model?

2001?

 

[vvvmmm]

That is the Tremor body style; here's mine:

I read Burny and Fernandes are the same company, or Fernandes at least makes Burny.

I'd wiper yers down with Lysol, but leave it lookin' like that.

For real! I wouldn't have thought twice about spending $30 on that!

It's close but the pickups and rear strap button are different.

 

[GreyBeard]

I'd clean it up and get everything working and then rock it. I think it looks cool.

 

[higain617]

I think that’s an MIJ serial number.

 

[Kukulkan61]

Pretty cool, but you better get a Tetanus shot before handling it

 

[Ronzo]

If it came from a storage locker...
