Title: CLASSICO pickup fitting
Post by: to_81_0190 on December 25, 2009, 04:30:02 PM

I bought CLASSICO 93CB7776 in used. When I was taking pics for Show Case I found the pickup unit is not fixed to the body. Is this wrong or right?

I looked at the images in your Showcase thread too, Toshiaki. I think the pickup housing has been modified. We haven't made one with a Maple top as far as I know, and there shouldn't be screws on the face either. I would like to see what's inside the pickup housing if you get a change.  
 
The bridge is also not original.

Hi Mica, Thank you for the answer. I took pics inside of the bass. Then I found pickup housing has a tilt. I sent E-mail to the shop which I bought this, if they can ask about these things to previous owner.
