A fretless Bass Maniac with non-lined phenolic fretboard and golden hardware (which both are additional options offered according to the catalogue). Because of serial number printed on the sticker, this is definetely one of first run Maniac renditions (1984-85), as it offers an early revision of 3-band TB-06S preamp paired with ceramic piezo pickups on the bridge. It packs rich, natural tone with outstanding clarity (please, check the demo on soundcloud page).

Condition is near excellent. The bass is properly serviced and ready to go! No playability issues. Cosmetically there's few minor scuffs and scratches; a tiny lacquer chip appears near the fretboard's joint (please check photos). 

The bass is fully set up to low 1/16-5/64 inch (1.6-2.0mm) action at 12th fret marker, but you can go lower than that at no cost! May include a hardcase for extra 50$ (please, ask for options).

Please do not hesitate to contact me if got any questions. Can provide extra photos, video- and sound- samples if needed.

Audio of this very bass can be found on soundcloud:
