75 Series 1
« on: March 08, 2015, 04:50:42 PM »
Looks like a sister Bass of mine is for sale.
Love seeing these Basses so close in looks and birthdate.  
Doesn't list the SN# but the Koa top looks like from the same log. The price will be a tough call at best for the seller as well as the pickup selector damage.

The serial number is 75AE222. I asked.
 
The pickup selector damage is just the knob.   That is what they look like when the plastic breaks away.   Easy fix.   In fact I was admiring just how original it is.   Tempting.

My Series had a broken selector knob like that when I got it, but my buddy Stoney sent me the plastic knob and it's good as new.
 
Definitely a cool bass. Someone should scoop it up. I like the back laminate.

Thank you Michael, you beat me to the punch on the SN#
Glad to hear the switch is good. She sure is pretty!
