    The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

    That’s what I’ve seen on reverb and doing research on them. People with have unbound neck, serial numbers below mine with pops and have them listed as ‘65

    I believe it is an early ‘66 based on the serial number with a ‘65 neck on it. Only way to be certain is to check pots

    Also, another thing I should mention is that he has a 1929 Gibson L-4 Archtop Acoustic.

    Yep. That’s exactly how I picture the look on my face when I pick it up for the first time. (Actually knowing the story behind the bass and what it is) I do plan to have it set up as I believe the last time it was gigged was 2015 so I’m not sure how good of shape it is in currently, but luckily...
