This baby has been well loved. It was my primary bass from 1979-1989. Has been living in the case since. Dings and scratches for the "comes by it honestly" relic quality. Nut replaced with bone nut and re-fretted back in the late 80's. Neck finish worn on the back and edges of the fingerboard. All the electronics are functional. Pots are scratchy but only when moved. Toaster switch also scratchy but, settles in fine with a wiggle. SO, don't move the knobs while playing, just between songs, or sprinkle a little WD-40 in them. Original case is worn but functional. Serial Number 401876 made in USA
