Obviously, but I'm assuming that you will be removing the blindfold at some point before getting in your car and driving home. I am agreeing that no-one would guess the era from the sound alone but, even then, people would tend to buy the more desirable variant. No-one actually tries a bass to buy it while blindfolded.
