hi im new here, i was browsing the second hand basses near my town and i stumble upon this one, but idk the maker or model and the seller does not state it. is it a vintage 70s japanese model? he's asking 150€ for it but i would offer less, giving it might need complete new pickups and such. notherless, i do love this style.. can anyone help? thanks:hyper:

Yeah that's definitely an old Japanese bass. They can be fun, but also possibly a lot of work. Not knowing what prices are usually like near you, 150 Euro isn't terrible but you could probably talk that down some more

ty CnB im trying to get more info from the seller, a serial number or something. but the looks.. oh i do crave for that.. and i would not touch it beyond pickups/pots/wiring and strings, i like the faded look of it, especially the dullness on the ashtray metal. maybe i would refret it or polish the neck eventually but that would be all.
