Happened upon this one for a good price when the wallet was full and always wondered what they were like and wanted one.
An AMAZING-SOUNDING bass and the loudest unamplified bass ever(IMO).
What are the pickups? When I see creme-colored P pups I assume DiMarzio, but could be anything...
Pretty sure Tokai made the Fernandes in that era. AFAIK Tokai made their own pickups though it wouldn't surprise me if these were copies of DiMarzios.
Purty! Good for playing James Taylor songs I bet.
why would that be?
Claws away... ;)
Lee Sklar had a Precision with an added split coil pickup in the bridge position and he used it on lots of tracks with J.T.

Lee's bass has P-pickups reversed and they are also in different positions:

IIRC he also installed a separate preamp for each pickup.
and he can use his beard for muting :mrgreen:
His beard is also a handy mic stand. :)
