Hi Guys, I just bought this little bass and don't know a thing about guitars. I was hoping that someone could help me to identify its history. I have of course looked online to get some info, but nothing yet seems to fit this particular bass. I also emailed Bill Lawrence about it, but no response yet. From what I read, there is some controversy with Bill Lawrence pickups and the rights to the Bill Lawrence name. This is quite confusing, and I would love to know who actually made this bass. This bass does seem to have a Bill Lawrence pickup, but I can't find any info on a bass made by Bill Lawrence. The seller didn't have much info. Thanks in advance for any help.
