Cosmetic Condition: The bass shows normal play wear for its age; the finish is glossy with small blemishes and finish hazing throughout. The back and edges of the body have several small dings and some light buckle rash. The back of the neck has some minor finish checking at the heel and on the back of the headstock, as well as some small dings which do not affect playability.
Serial Number: 137362
Tech Notes: Plays well with low action and light neck relief. The neck has a slight twist resulting in an S-curve on the treble side, and the bass has been set up to accommodate this. The frets are narrow and fairly low with some light wear. The neck stamp, pot codes, and serial number date the bass to 1966.
