very interesting '76 Series I small body @ Bass NW

WOW!!! Interesting nut, tailpiece, logo - strange knobs where the Q switches would be - knobby headstock - cool graphic where the pickup selector switch would normally be - I'm in love!

That's the kind of bass I'm looking for. I'm looking for a small body short or medium scale bass in zebra wood. It's got a lot of plusses for me. Series II electronics(I guess), interesting logo, scalloped nut, LED's, interesting core, tailpiece, etc.

BUT that pickup selector has been moved. That switch located among the controls is my least favorite place for it. I'm so used to it being in the traditional spot!! Yes it could be moved back, but there will be a lovely hole for me to look at.

Anyone know more about this bass? I'm tempted. If it were not for that selector switch......

Nick,

Nice to meet you-- I'm assuming that was you picking up the bass at BassNW with your bandmates.

Bradley

afrobeat_fool · July 12, 2011, 06:21:09 PM

You too, Bradley. It was me. What was left of me, after that car ride. It reminded me of that scene in Up in Smoke, when all you can see is blue smoke rolling out of the windows. WOW! By the way, the guy in the flashy clothes was Terrence Wooten. Can you see the resemblence?

I wasn't going to say anything about the hempen smell... are you going to eat that?

Bradley

afrobeat_fool · July 14, 2011, 09:00:30 PM

The smell? Hell, man, did you see my eyes?! I was afraid to take my sunglasses off!
