Thanks! I picked it up on eBay. Also the 59 RI with the rosewood board is a Fender CS.Wow! Nice. Are these Mesa custom order
Yes I used a Dremel with a cutting disc and cut it to fit over/ around the babicz, was quite easy to do and took about 15 minutes. I wouldn't do it to an original unmolested bass but this bass is completely modded, 1968 tele neck, early 70s p bass body with jazz pickup added, babicz bridge, schaller tuners with Hipshot drop tuner, sadowsky pickups and the rest are fender replacement parts.
I was actually thinking of the Mesa Boogie bass comboThanks! I picked it up on eBay. Also the 59 RI with the rosewood board is a Fender CS.
I'm a huge fan of white basses, and black basses... they're the most "attractive" to me lol. I'd like to see some pics of your white basses![]()
