Blonde Beatle Bass

Here's one you don't see all that often...This is a Jay Turser Hofner knockoff with a spruce top and maple sides, back, and neck. It's identical to the Rogue versions but looks quite a bit better. The pups are humbuckers but when you crank up your overall volume, they get wonderfully microphonic. In more normal volumes the bass has a bright, solid tone with roundwounds.
There aren't any issues with the bass, it's in perfect condition. There is NO case. I'm looking for 150.00 + shipping. Shipping to be based on the buyers address and any options they require.

Pics of the headstock?

I actually thought I had a pic of the headstock but it wasn't there when I loaded them up.

The shape is identical to the Rogue's but this one has a blonde, flame maple laminate (matches the back) with the Jay Turser script logo

I don't know what this bass weighs...it's so light, I never thought to weigh it. It's probably in the 6-7 lb. range I would estimate.
