That old hippie that had a shop on Broadway in Newport worked on my Fender a while back... I think he's still there. Not sure. Heck I'm not sure if I'm still here sometimes!!

Those are the people you need.

I remember I bought it from a workmate who's dad played in a country band back then. Was in excellent shape but the electronics needed some love. When I went to pick it up the guys at the shop couldn't stop smiling it had such incredible sound. I still have the original tubes and I'm pretty sure all the old parts they replaced somewhere...

Now if I only played bass anymore
