Hi Guys. I bought a second hand precision bass, which seems to have been put together as it has the Nate Mendel signature neck, but the body pick guard etc do not seem right for that model. Can anyone help me what body this is? I would have removed the scratch plate but some of the screws were worn and didnt want to drill them out.
Any help much appreciated!
I am not sure if I have put up the pictures correctly.. they are on the links if not!
Thanks

Howdy Batemanprdc,

Sorry for the late reply. There's not been a lot of action on the forums lately.
Although I'm not an expert on all things Fender I might be able to help.
The photos appear to be the Fender color Fiesta Red, and is the road worn style that Fender makes.

A Google search shows:
The Pino Palladino signature bass comes in Fiesta Red. Some were made in the Fender Custom Shop and some in Mexico.
The Nate Mendel bass comes in Candy Apple Red and was made in Mexico.

It appears this bass may have been made from parts of both basses, neck and body both likely made in Mexico.
If I liked the bass I might buy it anyway if the price wasn't out of line.
