This bass dates from 1978 according to the serial number. 

Of course this '78 BB looks great with its natural finish and black pickguard. It has a nice (presumably) macassar ebony fretboard and classy inlays. 

This bass plays and sounds just great. It has a fat neck profile which will not be anyone's taste, though it's lovely if you like it. 

In its 40 years of existence, this BB has been well used. There are a lot of user marks to be found. It has some fretwear, but the neck can be played with low action. Technically the bass is all fine, the neck is straight and well adjustable. As you can see from the pictures, the screw on the E tuner is not original. It's now fitted with rotosound rounds. 

The original hardcase is included in the sale. 

I bought this bass not too long ago from another BC member, as a bit of an impulsive purchase because it looks so damn fine. This really is a great bass, but I do not actually need it. 

Price €675

The bass is located in the Netherlands. I am happy to ship within Europe/UK at buyers risk and expense. Costs will be from €35 on, depending on location and insurance.
