Good morning all, hoping you and yours are safe.
Recently I got the chance to purchase, second-hand, one of my dream guitars. This is a 2009 Standard 24 Satin. Got it from a private seller in another state here in México.
Upon arrival I disassembled everything carefully to make sure all is original and in place. But noticed the following:
The pickups seemed to be originally covered. They have wax around them and soldering iron on the bottom, characteristic of covered pickups.
They have the Vintage Bass and HFS stickers on them, but after some research on the web I can't find pictures of these with that particular appearance (showing the bottom side of the magnets, instead of just the 2 screws, makes sense?). I am a little nervous this might not be original, but I have contacted the seller and am waiting for his reply.
Has any of you seen these particular model of Vintage Bass and HFS? Pictures below...
