Fender "Al Turner " bass ***SOLD***
This bass was made for Al "The Burner" Turner , long time bassist.
for Earl Klugh, back in 1997.
I think Fender had hopes of luring Al away from his Ken Smith
endorsement.
Al stuck with Smith, this bass was stuck in the closet and is in 99%.
mint condition.
This bass has a Custom Shop decal on the back of the headstock that
is unlike the current CS decal.
No serial number on the back plate , only in the neck pocket.
The word from Reggie Hamilton is that back in '97 , if there is a CS
decal but no serial number on the back plate,
then what you have is a MasterBuilt instrument.
I am no Fender expert , but I do believe what I have been told.
Some unusual features on this bass
Bad Ass Bridge
See-Thru Candy Apple Red finish
Neck Thru Stringing option
4 String JB body , a little more compact than a normal Fender 5er.
Fender Noiseless pickups
3 band Active EQ
