1980's Japanese Headless Paddle Bass (Black)

1980's Japanese Headless Paddle Bass (Black)An unknown model imported from Japan, appears to be a Japanese build and is loaded with a pair of Japanese GOTOH humbuckers. Three volume controls (master and one for each pickup) work as they should. Given a basic service prior to listing, the neck is straight and the frets have plenty of life. Currently tuned to D standard as the truss isn't tightening easily and we don't want to push it, sold as is. Shipping: Domestic We offer a courier service
