That's a lovely looking bass. You'll struggle to find a bass half as good as that under £200.

They are brilliant. They dont need any mods.
Studio Lord dating from around 1980 (give or take a couple). Tobacco burst. Superb guitar. Very much like a vintage Gibson Les Paul in feel and sound. A friend of mine has a Yamaha SG2000 from the same era and this sounds very similar to me. Theres several dinks and scrapes but nothing too bad for a well gigged guitar thats 30+. Its not the prettiest but its never let the band down.
One fret may need a gentle tap on the very edge (top E) as I can feel an edge. I would do it myself but I'm a bit of a DIY disaster with a hammer. On the pics theres some smears that are polish. I'm also a disaster at polishing too it seems.
Only thinking of selling as its getting less and less use. May be interested in a trade against a Japanese/USA Precision or Jazz or possibly a bass cab. Cash is good though. It would be hard to get any guitar of this quality for the price. Great first choice guitar or would make a top spare to a Gibson.

lots.
Haven't got any scales so can't be accurate. It's a one hand lift but only for short distances. Very short.

That sounds like 29lb for a 48 year old man with a bad back!
Hi, it came with it when I got it. Its only a cable that plugs into the jack type 9v socket with a female for standard 9v adaptors on the other end. I haven't got a clue what they are called either! Sorry, not much help I'm sure!
Cheers
