Go ahead.. find a Made In USA set neck bass for under $2000 !!!!
The serial may be under the bridge or along the lower side of the headstock, on the edge.
It's definately a PF-22 Bass, and this variation has both style Magnum Pickups..
I knew about this one, but figured it would easily go for over a $1000, so didn't bother. Dang!!!!! |

Chalk up one for the BFLG! The fickle Mistress of Ebay just winked at me.
Now I'll either need to get lessons or trade up for something. |

No matter what you get, it won't have those pickups in it. You could certainly trade up to a more expensive bass, but you'll have to get into some real money to find a better one. JMHO |

Actually I would like to learn some Bass basics and I may never need another Bass again! When I saw it I knew it was 99% legit and didn't expect to win it. |

Matches perfectly to my TRC and PUP rings. Woody, we need to talk my friend. These 2 are, how did Robert Barone put it? "Meant to Be"

Location: 6 String Ranch | they are original, see how they match the knobs? which are original too. I picked them just for that. If you redo the p/g get the curve to the treble side proportioned right, this one is off a bit. |
