Wow, Harry. Great basses there.
Paul the truss-rod cover is the raised-letter type.
I really love this bass. I am a guitar player

but love to play the bass. I use it in my studio. I haven't played the Rick for years due to bad electronics, switch, pickup. Now ...

Hi Paul
Thanks for a quick answer. Yes the truss-rod cover is black. Unfortunately the Badass was there when I got the bass. The original bridge wasnt included.
Got the pickup sorted now so the tape is removed.
I got the bass for $200 20 years ago.

Thanks again
