Description

What makes this bass special: A truly wonderful solid body bass with some fabulous tone & texture. Light weight, very comfortable to play & quite resonant, delivering rich dynamic tones.  Professionally inspected & set up by our own luthier so it plays & sounds fantastic!

Cosmetic Condition: Really nice shape for its age with only mild play wear - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings along with surface scratches.  There's an extra screw hole in the bass-side horn from a previous strap button.  Overall the bass looks great & plays perfectly.

Neck: Maple neck with black side-dots. Maple fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays. Frets are in great shape with hardly any wear.  Open-back nickel tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 5/8" nut width; 34" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.

Body: Contoured, solid alder body with optional string-thru design. 3-point, top-loading bridge with adjustable saddles. The bridge cover is missing. Dark tortoise single-ply pickguard shows some play wear, but no cracks.  Bass weighs 8 lbs 9.4 oz.

Electronics: Bill Lawrence Super Humbuckers with 4-way rotary selector switch. Dual volume & master tone controls with black speed knobs.  Pots date to '73 & all electronics are in good working condition.

Case: Original hardshell case included.
