I completed my pre CBS collection a couple months ago but just now finished with the photographer. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.

PS. There is an intentional error in the photo....see if you can find it.Image

Pretty f'n cool! 8)

Here's a tough question for you: If there was a fire and you could only grab two of those basses, which would they be?

I'm chuffed! I can't make out the signature dated 2014. Who?

Where the hell is your book?! It's not like I am going to live forever!!!

Stunning? Stunning!

As for the error: either it's the "watermark" neck in the background, which looks to be a modern neck (it's got the Hipshot-esque tuners). Or is it the bass that you're playing, which seems to have an A-width (Jazz Bass) neck. The picture isn't hi-res enough to distinguish the logo it has.

A fellow Fender Rumble Club member on TalkBass named Rickenbottom has caught what I think is the correct answer.
There are no tuning keys in the reflection of the rightmost blue Precision.

I think we both deserve autographed books and calendars.
Thank You,
Comrade Linnin

Linnin,

Nice catch. That was actually an oops that I didn't know about, so thank you. I have contacted the photographer to make it right.

You were closer when you asked about the signature, which is John Page.

Steve

Not only a lovely collection of bases but a piece of American history, & Fender's greatest period of building the guitars & basses we all love & desire today.
