I recently bought the NOS version of this very same bass from Anthony & I love it!. It blew me away in both its sound & playability. Not to mention, fhe Black Pearl is absolutely gorgeous. I am more than pleased with my investment & highly recommend this special Empire/Fender Custom Shop 58 Precision bass for any player who wants something extra-special. Thanks!
Really dig the look, AND the sound of that bass; both with and without the overdrive. I'm generally not a big fan of relics, but this black and gold combo seems to be made for the heavy relic approach!
