Must thin out the collection!!
Another '80's bass from the Matsumoku factory! Other than quite a few minor dings on the body and finger wear by the P pup, it's in great shape for it's age. Very, VERY little fret wear. This has the 18v preamp and is a sonic tone monster!! Everything works perfectly. The neck on this one I would say is between a P and Jazz neck. It's thinner than my other Electra P necks but it's not as skinny as a typical Jazz neck. The setup is perfect, low, no fret buzz and plays perfectly. I may never be needed but I will also include a wiring schematic.
S0LD!!!!!!!  Paypal prefered

1.575 at the nut, 2.450 at the 20th fret. I would call the profile D shaped, medium, not fat thickess front to back. It has a nice thickess that seems right for the width but not nearly as thin front to back as my Bacchus Jazz! |

knobs:
Volume
Trebble/Bass Boost ( in active)
Tone Passive, the schematic says "notch roll off active" I'm pretty sure it's a mid boost/cut in active.
mini switches:
Series/Parallel
Phase/reverse
Eq or passive/active on/off
My wife and I spend some time trying to get an accurate weight. 9lbs on two scales!! |

For those of you who aren't aware, this was made by the same guys that made the vintage 70s/80s Ibanez.
It may seem like a small thing, but having the pickup selector switch in this location makes a huge difference. Much easier and quicker to reach while playing.
You simply can't get something like this at this price from any modern manufacturer. And as a bonus, the wood has already aged for 20+ yrs.
If it was BLACK w/maple neck, I'd be all over it.
Good luck FLK.

Thanks Mitch!! Yes, it would take a hell of a lot more than $300 to buy something that plays and sounds better at GC!! |

Josh | It's got a few dings but nothing outrageous.    |
