The headstock face has light hazing, and the back of the neck has various small dings as well.

Tech Notes: The bass plays well with medium action and light neck relief, and is set up with extra light bass strings. The truss rod has limited adjustability, and so heavier strings would not be recommended. The frets are wide and low with light divots present up to the sixth fret. The appointments and serial number date the bass to 1972.
