This bass is available in the Bass Gallery , London. I contacted them recently and got feedback today. It's 1978 comes with cables, power supply and hard case. Current price ?4400

Lovely looking bass, shame about the crack by the pickup selector.
Am I right in thinking the bridge is the wrong style for a bass of that age?

Very pretty.  There appears to be a crack running from the pickup selector up to the top of the bass  in the veneer.  Love the short scaled basses. Beautiful!

Bridge and tailpiece are correct.  Knobs are modified.
