Here's what Mr. Tobias said about this bass.
"It was made in the middle of 1987 for Simeon Pillich, not sure if he is still around. we were on Cahuenga BL in Hollywood. it is pre Gibson. Simeon had a band called the Bone Daddys…. enjoy it!"
"stepped pick ups, 3 stacks. tops were vol, vol, passive tone, bottoms were treble, mid, bass, switch was a bypass for the active."
