With a one piece Mahogany body, this bass benefits from a lush nitro Goldtop finish. Originally gloss Foam Green, this bass has been refinished and definitely delivers a more vintage vibe experience for it. The nitro lacquer has checked over the years offering some really cool patterns and a light relic where the paint has worn.
The Maple neck is in great condition and feels ace. The frets are a little low but this gives it an almost fretless quality, super smooth and easy to play.
The pickups are where this instrument really comes to life. Loaded with 3 single coils, the Bass 4 boasts active circuitry, a hum cancelling coil, deep and clear controls and a pre-amp bypass switch. The 5 way rotary control allows you a whole host of tones, with great tonal variety this bass still punches hard after 30 years!
Complete with hardcase, this bass is something of a rarity and not something that crops up on the used market too frequently. If you are a bass player, its well worth checking out!
