Cosmetic Condition: Used, but not abused, with some mild play wear for its age - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches & some light finish wear. The white finish has aged rather beautifully over the years & mellowed into more of a cream color with nice variegation throughout. Overall the bass has a great look to it with a beautiful patina.

Frets show some light wear, but have plenty of life in them. Open-back nickel tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 33 1/4" scale length.
