Description
Made for only a very brief period around '67-68, this ultra cool Italian beauty is 100% original & features some truly unique qualities: Built-in G Tuner, Treble/Bass Boost & Distortion effects provide the player with an array of sonic textures. The hollow body design makes the bass light weight yet very resonant. The super skinny neck is ideal for guitarists who also enjoy playing bass & the classic cherry finish really rounds out the package. Professionally set up by us with fresh strings & low action, so it plays & sounds great!
Cosmetic Condition: Various nicks, dents & dings; scratches & heavy weather checking/cracking in the finish, particularly in the back of the body. Overall the bass has a cool look to it with an authentic vintage vibe & beautiful patina.
