« Fender Musicmaster '76 »
Published on 09/24/03 at 15:00Adirondack Strings, Albany NY, $280 with
molded hard case. I had been checking out a few other Musicmasters, looking for a
good shortscale bass but others were all
$375 to $475, mediocre condition, no case.
This one is in great shape, but cheaper
because of non-Fender components. One of
those components is a BadAss II, which I
would have surely installed anyway, so it
saved me an extra $60. The other is a
[Dimarzio?] Jazz PU which I probably would not have added due to the extra expense of
routing the body to fit it
