Can anyone help authenticate what I have here...
The serial dates the guitar to 89-90'.
The Neck looks to be in great shape, would this be an american neck?
The body looks to have been painted over, there is some penciling on the back side of the neck, maybe when the previous owner had it apart the cleaned it rubbing off most of the date marks?

In the photos the guitar is taken apart, there is a small gap between the bottom of the pickguard and someone slightly routed out the pickguard next the pickups, possibly not the original pickguard or body?

Can anyone give me any info on this or an approx. value.....
Thanks for any help.
Joe

ok, I think I found some evidence that this is a squire someone tried to make look like a non squire...
Inside the case I found a little decal that had been cut out, so obviously the previous owner was putting on decals.....
I guess this one would not have too much value?

If you like the way it plays, it has value. But you are correct, it is not an 89-90 Fender Precision Bass. Sorry.
