Eastwood Club Bass

It’s basically a single-cutaway version of Paul McCartney’s violin bass, so it’s supposed to sound fat and warm.

Hofner-style electronics include both volume knobs, a rhythm/solo tone switch, and on/off switches for each pickup. Switches are labeled backwards. Confusing at first, but I got used to it.

The Club Bass is a blast to play and sounds fantastically huge and old-fashioned. Its headstock dives, but it’s so light that holding it up isn’t a strain at all. It sounds honky and mean or tubby and plush, and it looks cool as hell.

Basically, if you want one of these, you know what it’s supposed to do, and the Eastwood does it.

Bottom line If you want a Hofner and don’t want to spend beaucoup, get this.

Weight: 5 lbs
Scale length: 30 1/2"
Body: Laminated maple with flame-maple top
Neck: Set maple
Fingerboard: Rosewood
Nut: Plastic
Pickups: Mini humbuckers
Controls: Bridge volume, neck volume, pickup on/off switches, rhythm/solo tone switch

Pretty much mint.
Would also be willing to part ex/swap. I'm on the market for a rack power amp or a solid-bodied bass.
