I'm still thinking late 69 possibly, the FG looks a shade darker than usual '70 'glo. But it could all be in the lighting of course...

Those 21 frets do reveal a little more...

November of 1970 Autumnglo.

It has a paper thin neck...

Nice!! You'll have to measure it's neck girth so it can get added to John A's spreadsheet.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

Wow! :shock: Wow! :shock: Wow!

As a guy who doesn't usually get hung up on the vintage or appointments of his Ric basses, I have to say that one makes me NEED a 70 Autumnglo. Wow!

Wow - a stunning find.
After the first page of posts, I thought it was just going to be a one tease after another.
I'm sure glad you finally showed us the whole incredible thing.
That really looks great. Enjoy!

OH GOOD.................!

Now THAT is what I call a VINTAGE BASS!

AUTUMN GLO......oh man, WHY did it have to be AUTUMN GLO!?!?!?!?

Congratulations Dave, what a GREAT FIND!

IF I ever decide to get my 71 BG restored, THAT is what I want it to look like.

Can I trouble you for some FULL SIZE pics?

Man, that makes my 71 BG look like the ugly girl at the Prom! :shock:

+1!

Autumnglo is the sweetest of all finishes. This is actually one of the options I have in mind for the '72 I just got.
