Love love love the battle scars on this one. What’s back story? Where did you find it? Weight? Price?

Popped up on FB Marketplace yesterday. Price was cheap, but pretty sure no where’s near as cheap as the yelled sale the seller bought it at!

Those don’t look stock to me.

These are from one of the 78s I used to have for comparison:

Those pickups look like Duncan Quarter-Pounders. Definitely not stock. Same goes for the bridge (obviously) and the pickguard is likely a replacement.

My ‘78 fretless came to me with the exact same replacement parts: bridge, pickguard and pickup and it’s been a great player.
