Another Bass On The Way.......

[hsech]

I just made an offer on EBay for a pristine 1975 Fender Music Master Bass and the seller accepted. I'm stoked. It's unmolested and 100% original right down to the hang tag and case. This will make my 4th short scale bass:

Wow! that thing looks as mint as can be.
Nice sore!

[madmanmerc]

Very nice - a real find.
From your posts, I know you've got a Mustang and an SG. Just curious what the other one is.
You have 5 listed on your website, so I'm figuring a couple of those are 'used to haves'.

I tried an older Music Master a year or two ago and was really impressed with the feel of the neck on it.

I was never much of a short scale guy, but that thing is incredibly cool!

Very nice!

I'm sick..... I need professional help. That's two old basses I've bought in the past four weeks. A 72 Gibson EB3 and now the 75 Music Master. Now maybe I can play again when I get out of my full body cast after my wife found out.

Nice score

 

[Duder]

Nice find! I'm rather jealous.

Ah, yes! This is my favorite variant of the Gibson EB genre of basses, with the mudbucker in more of a mid position than right up against the fingerboard. Nice bass.

Great Bass that Music Master. I have a 1977 that I started on in '95 and I still have it. LaBella flats are new on her and I left her in soft case for 6 months and she's in perfect tune!

Hsech, do not fear. The Doctor is here to help. Might I prescribe the following: 1 bass quarterly, 2 accessories of any type twice monthly, and a regimen of music store visits once a week, minimum.
