Description
A lovely and rather curious little short scale bass guitar, made a long time ago in the far East, in need of a little TLC.
It's a charming little unit, with that single coil pickup producing a lovely range of mellow 60s sounds. I had one of these lovely basses a few years ago and remember those sounds well. This guitar does however need a spot of tlc to get it truly up to scratch. The electrics work, and it plays very nicely indeed, however the one of the pots will need to be swapped out, as one has snapped at the shaft. This isn't the volume control, which is behind so I've no idea what this pot does. One position dot is missing, along with the nut.
This bass is offered in fair condition as mentioned and returns are not accepted.
It has also been treated to a basic service that includes strings, fretboard treatment, action setting, electrics check and a deep clean.
Viewing is always advised and very welcome by appointment in our Bristol studio. Further pictures also available on request as well as a condition report. If purchasing unseen, please be aware that this is a pre-loved instrument and will have commensurate wear. Part exchanges are always considered.
