So, this is a "1977-78 Fender Precision bass" said to be "all-original" except for one of the tone/control knobs. Price is pretty good and I was considering until further inspection and I noticed that there is a serial number on both the headstock and neckplate - and they are not matching. Serial number on headstock is from 1977 I believe while serial number on neckplate is from 1975 I believe.

Thoughts? Real? Fake? Real but body and neck from different years? Thoughts/opinions would be great. Going to give posting pics a shot - but may fail miserably. Thanks!

Their should be a stamp on the end of the neck by the heel and their should be a sticker under the pickups and a sticker on the pickguard. It shoud be a F neck plate with no serial # .
