Hello there, I have one question about my guitar.
Number on plate is L702xx, and neck date sign is Dec.1964.
Is this correct, or I have Franken one?
Regards, Tommy.

Serial numbers for Fender basses were not exactly sequential.

Having an L number on a bass with a DEC 64 neck is perfectly logical.
There is no way to prove that a neck is original to any Fender bass since they are interchangeable, but that number and that neck look more like an original pairing than not.

L serial numbers started in 1964 anyway.
