Description
Condition: This bass is built with exceptional quality and is in great playing condition. There are various surface scratches and small nicks, dings, dents and a few small chips throughout the instrument. There is a large crack on the bottom of the tailpiece with some separation. The tailpiece is not separating any further and it is not affecting playability or showing any movement whatsoever. The preamp has been replaced with an EMG preamp however the original is included in the case. This bass utilizes transducers beneath each side of the bridge with two small screws to adjust sensitivity. When over tightened, the transducers do not make a signal. The fingerboard has light play wear and is in great playing shape.
