Nice looking bass. Looks like the neck Q switch is missing.

that's a lotta scratch for a series I.  76 - that's my year. at least it has a case.  busted switch.  mix & match strings.  i dunno.  have'nt had the morning bud & hash yet.  maybe it'll make more sense after that

SC personally helped me buy it, as in I saw Stanley in an Alembic ad and he said buy one of these..or SC is my Close personal friend, met me at the shop and played the hell of out the thing before giving his approval or ?????


Sort of like the provenance approach many of my fellow Minnesotans take…if the person ever flew over the state of Minnesota he or she is a Minnesotan.
