VINTAGE EARLY 70'S ELECTRA P BASS STYLE HARD TO FIND

Sign in to disble this ad
The neck is almost pristine with the only slight flaw being the walnut skunk stripe has shrunk a wee bit and you can feel that on your hand. Headstock, logo, and tuners are in great condition and this guitar has hardly seen any playing. Frets are clean with the slightest showing of play action. No big divots and such. Shiny fretboard has a few minor scrapes . Back of neck is bright and shiny and looks almost new and neck is very straight. Don't know how it survived all these years. Body of guitar has dramatically yellowed both front and back and has that real vintage look. 34 1/2" scale as I measure. 20 frets and total guitar is 45 3/4" long. Weighs in at a hefty 10 1/2 lbs. so not for the faint of heart as you say. Internet search shows these as very scarce and hard to come by so don't miss this one. $300 + shipping

this one dates back to the very first production models of their bass line, early 70s pre lawsuit.
