This is my first post, so hello fellow P-lovers :D
I've been looking at this on Ebay.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1970-Fe ... 1c269eafe0

I'm not troubled by the non-original parts on it because I'd be basically be using it for parts anyway. I'm more interested in opinions over whether it is a genuine 1970 model or not. There seems to be no intact dating on either body or neck and the pots date to 1983. What I find particularly odd, is the decal on the headstock. It seems to be in the wrong place, particularly part of the name behind the tuner bushing. Were Fender sloppy in their decal placement? Is the whole thing a fake? I'm interested to hear what people think.

Oh boy-- I would have to decide on that thing by just playing it. It don't look right at all . It looks like a parts bass. I've never seen a Decal off like that but maybe someone has. Maybe the neck is the only old thing on it. The body could be anything just from those pics.-- etc etc-- hard to tell from pics.
