Pedulla EMS Bass Guitar – 1981 Neck-Through – Bartolini P/J – Original Era Hardware

Rare opportunity to own an early Pedulla EMS bass from 1981. I confirmed the production year directly with the Pedulla shop when I purchased the instrument. This bass was previously owned and toured by a professional musician and has been a regularly played and well-maintained part of my collection.

This is an outstanding player with the unmistakable feel and tone that made Pedulla instruments legendary. Features include:

• Neck-through-body construction
• Thick rosewood fingerboard
• Bartolini P/J pickups
• Badass II bridge
• Brass nut
• Sperzel tuners
• Approximately 9 lbs 10 oz

The bass sounds excellent and plays effortlessly with a strong, articulate tone that sits perfectly in a mix while retaining the warmth and character Pedulla instruments are known for.

Condition:
This is a player’s instrument, not a museum piece. The bass shows honest wear from decades of use including finish swirls, dings, and a paint chip, all of which are shown in the photos. None of the cosmetic wear affects playability or performance. Additional photos are available upon request.

Includes:
• Road Runner hard shell case
• Strap locks

Pedulla instruments are no longer being produced, and early neck-through examples are becoming increasingly difficult to find. If you’re looking for a vintage Pedulla that can be played and enjoyed immediately rather than kept in a display case, this is an exceptional example.
