| Body Material: | Ash |
| Neck Material: | Maple |
| Fingerboard Material: | Maple |
| Neck Profile: | C |
| Neck Thickness (IN): | 1st - 0.92" 12th - 1.00" |
| Fingerboard Radius: | 7.25" |
| Nut Width: | 1-1/2" |
| Electronics: | The bass has been fully rewired with Lace Sensors and non-original pots. The bass has two single coil pickups, two volume pots, and a tone pot. |
| Pickup Measurements: | neck - 5.3 kΩ, bridge - 5.3 kΩ |
| Weight: | 9lbs 9oz |
| Modifications/Repairs: | The body has been stripped and refinished and the fingerboard has been oversprayed. It has been fully rewired with Lace Sensors and non-original pots. The pickup cavities have been routed slightly to accommodate. The pickguard, strap buttons, and knobs have been replaced. The neck and neck pocket have been converted from three to four bolts with a non-original neck plate. The bridge cover and finger rest have been removed. The neck has been refretted. |
| Case Details: | Original hardshell case |
| Cosmetic Condition: | This vintage Fender bass is in good condition. The finish is glossy with scratches, dings, and small finish chips throughout. The body near the bridge and the headstock near the A string tuner show empty screw holes. The clear coat around the neck binding is well worn, with much of it chipped away on the sides and some chips extending to the fingerboard. The metal hardware is tarnished with age. |
| Serial Number: | 639285 |
| Tech Notes: | The bass plays well with low action and optimal neck relief. The frets are wide and medium height with minor play wear. The serial number dates to 1975, but this plate is not original to the bass. Due to the style of neck, we believe this is a mid to late '70s instrument. |
