100% Correct?

I purchased this back in 2005, sold it, begged a little bit and just re-purchased it for a potential 72 restoration project.

The jack reads “LH XXXX”.

All the pods read from “72”.

Are the caps right?
Is the wire original?

What do you think?

If those are Sprague caps then is it probably correct. Paul Boyer has a '72. Paul?

I've also seen the blue .0047uF cap brand in that era basses in pics.

I don't have notes or photos of the inside of my '72, and hesitate to take it apart right now. Anyone else?

Dave,

This is what it looks like under the hood of my LD '72 4001FG:-

Well, my '72 that was redone by Paul has all-new factory wiring. I have only had the pickguard off once on my other '72 (the RRF T-shirt bass)...I'll take a peek hopefully later tonight and report what I find...I do know that it has CTS pots of Mexican manufacture and that it's all original. More later...
