Unsure of exact year, but pre-1980. Well-loved, but definitely has some issues. The bridge pickup is spotty, probably would need to be replaced. Some serious wear on the bottom of the bass, to include missing the strap button. It has some sort of screw situation in place of it, however. The rotary switch at some point was rewired. It’s now neck pickup only, bridge pickup only, both in series, both parallel. Also, will need a refret, but it has been setup recently. Price is negotiable, really just trying to move on from it and get out from under some debt.
