1977 P bass with Seymour Duncan SPB-1 pickups. This piece aside from the pickups is all original including the finish and is definitely a player grade instrument. Various dings and lacquer checking is visible around the body and neck, but this means that its an instrument thats been played in and has a ton of mojo. The Seymour Duncans shant be underestimated, they sound great and are hard to distinguish from the original grey bobbin pickups. I've played a dozen 70's p basses and this one has tone for days. The pickups have a deep tight low end with smooth mids and beautiful transparent highs, they really growl and the old ash wood has lost all its moisture over the years and resonates like a bell. The cosmetic wear is what custom shops dream of recreating and really bring you closer to this instrument. The neck has been constantly played for over 40 years and has practically morphed to the shape of a human hand, its absolutely a dream to play. But the most important part is this piece has been perfectly setup, theres absolutely no need to bring this piece to a tech. Every inch has been inspected, left with low smooth action, perfect intonation and neck relief, and polished frets that are a dream to play on, rather glide on. If you're looking at this you're a player ready to continue its legacy and this baby is ready for you. Thank you for looking

Condition: Great shape for its age, the original olympic white finish has aged beautifully into a cream color. Various dings and scratches around the body and neck all clearly pictured.


Electronics:
Seymour Duncan SPB-1 pickps, original pots and capacitors.
