Hi mate yes all original. It’s a really nice colour. All the wear is genuine.

Just reopened for you as requested. Cheers 🍻

A couple of sound clips (not me playing!!) With flats (this is an almost identical 1970 bass, mine sounds exactly like this) ...and with rounds - pretty funky eh

Hi folks I haven't had this very long but I have found that my Mustang covers similar territory so I don't think I need both. I originally bought this for flatwound strings to get a really nice fundamental tone which this delivers really well. The pickup is all original and has BOTH tone caps installed and untouched, giving a really meaty bottom end. The bass was purchased by its first UK owner in 2000 from New York, and I bought it from him. I have carried out a full setup to get the neck straight (rod works well) and low action. I gave it a clean and nourished the fretboard. I left everything else original - the scratchplate is slightly cracked (they all are!) - it's fine if you're careful when unplugging. Electronics are fantastic - very little noise even with the single coil pickup (maybe because of the tone caps?) It's fitted with LaBella 760FM-S strings (49-109) which feel great. I also have a set of rounds which came on the bass, unsure of the make. I do have a (full sized) hardcase you can have, and even a box, so shipping is an option - but I'd much prefer pickup from York or nearby (happy to travel a bit). It's really hard to capture the colour! I'll try and add some more pictures in different light. Let me know if you have any questions. As Musicmasters go, this is the one to have. Why not treat yourself? Cheers ped
