Otherwise it was plain-jane so it was probably a '74 or a late '73. The second one was '77 or later as it had 1" space and non-parallel knobs. Both received Badass tailpieces. In the end, Geddy did not like the lack of low end. Too bad he did not know about the .00047mfd cap.
Welcome back! And I'm glad to see someone else pretty much agree with me. :D
