Please PM me for a link. So ... CIJ 1970's RI style. Japanese Pickup and hardware, 40mm nut. 8lbs. Gig bag. Oli white/tort/rosewood. It should have a black plate for the full on Sid Vicious styleee.

OldGit Posted March 15, 2010 Author Share Posted March 15, 2010 Basswood, I assume, but a real '62 is also very light.. or mine was. One of their very nice characteristics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 The sunburst one is the twin of my MIJ '62 RI mine also has an N0 serial. Mine's very light as well and I'm sure the body is alder. Sounds great with the stock pickup as well. Good luck with the sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basswood is very much like Alder to look at, with a tight grain. I'm just assuming they are Basswood. Not sure of the sonic characteristics of Basswood compared to Alder. So many variables, even between basses made of the same woods... These both sound fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
