Kent Newport 528 1960's Sunburst

Up for sale here is a vintage 1960's Kent Newport bass, model 528. This is a great short scale bass with a nice chunky neck and single centered pickup. It's all original with the exception of a replacement tone control. Includes the rare Kent stamped bridge cover. Split aluminum pickguard. Fender style headstock with gold K logo. This bass has been fully set up, frets dressed and polished (showing no visible wear) and restrung with D'Addario flatwounds. Has a great feel and sound. Neck is straight, saddles are slotted to match neck radius nicely. Did I say this neck was chunky? Some scuffs around the bottom edges, and a few shallow chips in the clearcoat on the back of the neck as shown, which do not impede playability. Overall it's a cool vintage MIJ short scale bass for short scale money!
