Plexi TRC from the 60ies... Bass vs Guitar

Post by Colonel Sanders »

Hi,

Would a plexi TRC from the 60ies the same dimension between a guitar and a bass?

Cheers

Yeah. They were all hand-cut so there were some variances even between the same model. But they're the same general size.

Obviously 12-string TRC aren't the same shape.


*note - 1968-974 TRCs typically have the "Made in USA" parallel to the nut with the model printed underneath it.

Thank you Sir!

I now have found the last missing part for Larry Davis to resurrect my 1964 4001S to its former glory!

Cheers

I'm curious - what is a 974 model? Google was not my friend. Bjorn's site wasn't either.
