Gibson Explorer Bass.
Not sure of the year, but the serial number is 83624553
Body is stucturally perfect.
Paint has aged and faded nicely, with small indents, cracks, and dings.
Has volume control for each pickup and a master tone control
I replaced one of the top had knobs that had broken.
It has a brass nut, which I'm not sure is original
The frets are in excellent shape.
I tried to capture all of the bass's character in the photos below.
The bass sounds fabulous to my ears and you can dial in a variety of tones with the 3 controls.
Comes with the original Gibson case.
$1100 shipped UPS ground to the upper 48 states, insured.
