Description

What makes this bass special:  Killer looks, tone & vibe - this one has it all!  Lightweight, very resonant with a warm, beefy humbucker kicking out some sweet vintage sounds!  She's been around the block a few times & it has the road wear to prove it, but that just adds to the overall charm of this lovely short scale EB-0.

Cosmetic Condition:  Good, honest play wear, just the way we like 'em - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, weather checking, buckle rash & some finish wear.  There are a couple of surface cracks in the body down by the input jack, but these are purely cosmetic & do not affect playability.  The finger-rest had been up on the bass-side of the body at some point, but is now back over the pickguard.  The A tuner has a replaced back screw, but everything functions fine.  Overall the bass has a great, well-played look to it with a gorgeous patina.

Neck:  Semi-chunky mahogany neck with cream side-dots.  Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays.  Original frets show some wear, but have plenty of life in them.  Open-back tuners are in perfect working condition.  1 11/16" nut width; 30" scale length.  Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.  Truss rod cover is unoriginal.

Body:  SG-style solid mahogany body.  Top-loading bridge with chrome hardware.  3-ply black pickguard with wooden finger-rest.  There's a small chip out of one corner of the guard.  Bass weighs 7 lbs 4.6 oz.

Electronics:  Neck humbucker with chrome cover.  Master volume & tone controls with black "top hat" knobs.  Original pots & bumble bee cap.  All electronics are in perfect working condition.

Case:  Original hardshell case included.
