Vintage Ovation Magnum II 1262 Electric Bass | Natural Finish | Original Case & Strap
Description
Beautifully preserved vintage Ovation Magnum II (Model 1262) four-string electric bass guitar, made in the USA in the late 1970s.
This instrument was originally purchased new by a family member and has remained in the family since. It was played very little throughout its lifetime and has been carefully stored in its original hardshell case. Its exceptionally well-preserved appearance reflects its limited use.
The bass has recently undergone servicing and cleaning, including the installation of two new batteries, electrical maintenance, and cleaning and conditioning of the instrument. The original pickups and control knobs have been retained.
