"tune stabilizer included"?!

I never leave home without mine!

googled the serial number, the only other 2 results (which there should not be any except this bass) are both fakes as well

How much for just the “tune stabilizer”?

You can get headstock decals made to say anything.

Some people use them to legitimize a fake as a “Fender”.

I put this label on an SX bass that I modified:

Yeah, I’m sorry. That’s not a Fender. It may be a nice playing bass, I don’t know. But it isn’t worth $500.

What if it's a Fender body with a Warmoth or Allparts neck? just because it not 100% Fender doesn't mean it isn't good or not worth the asking price. I've seen WAYYYYY worse deals than this in the TB classifieds

Prudent tip: don't buy it. Problem solved. You're welcome

Lots of basses are good and worth it. Look at the placement of the tuners. That’s not a Warmoth or Allparts neck.

Agree 100% but it’s seller's job to list the parts being used to build the bass.

Chinese fake. 250 new

Not a Fender, and definitely not a $500 bass. Run away.

Im not wasting $500 on a chinesse copy, I paid $300 for my mint japanese ibanez blazer and Im so happy. I would love a natural wood tone P bass, but I'll keep waiting for the right deal.

I think you got enough information to discard this bass immediately.

 

[villegastx]

I did.
Thanks guys.

Really? A Chinese counterfeit at double the price new?

 

[Green Hornet]

Looks like it is missing the headstock string tree nut.

It takes a very good p bass to better an Ibanez Blazer ! Especially if it’s made in Japan !
You better keep it forever and worse case, you will have a more than excellent backup bass.
