It does look incredible and in immaculate condition for a bass of that vintage.

Beautiful looking bass although at a premium price. I love the way the neck blends in almost perfectly with the body.

It’s cool, almost like a spalted Birdseye. Looks like maple core with a thin Purple Heart center body laminate.  I like the way the neck blends with the body too.  The logo looks a little funny though, almost like it was cast, but might just be the photo quality.

#76-569, for searching's sake later. My, my, my... what a pretty bass.


*I think the hand-cut logo may look odd because a corner of the cloud is missing.
