Telecaster Bass, manufactured in 1974?1975

Ash body, maple neck, maple fingerboard.
This instrument weighs over 5 kg.
The neck is thick and close to a U-shape, and combined with the weight, it produces deep, rumbling bass tones!

The truss rod nut has been replaced; the truss rod has little play left; about 60% of the frets remain; there are traces of a strap pin having been added to the 1st string horn on the back of the body; the pickguard mounting screws have been replaced; there is a cigarette smell; however, the price reflects these factors and is very reasonable.

Itfs in good playing condition.
