Randall:
 
Just to be accurate, the description of your bass is incorrect.  It doesn't have adjustable EQs.  Those are actually low pass filters, one for each pick up.  The toggles are, indeed, Q switches.  Good luck selling the bass.  Very fair price, especially with a new case and DS-5R.
 
Bill, the guitar one

Hi Randy,
What is the scale length measured from the nut to the 12th fret, and are you also including the 5pin cord to the power supply?
Thanks,
Mike

By long scale you mean 34? (17 from nut to 12th fret).
Do I see Ebony neck laminates as well?

Mike - they didn't start with ebony lams until the 1990s I think. Looks like the finish has yellowed on this one, making the colour of the dark laminates even darker.

It turns out the Neck pickup was bad on this instrument. I ordered a new case and a new power supply and a new cable for it and a schematic. It all comes with it and a new neck pickup and the old one for collectability.  
Thanks all. Any questions, just ask.
