Good question John. The owner says they have always been there as long as he has known the bass going back to 1980...

Andy:
whether the screw holes on this '69 pickguard will line up with the ones on the top of the bass is anyone's guess, really.
Shaun:
Thanks. Yes, please do send me a pic of the high-gain on your '72.

Sergio-
The black 69 was originally fireglo. When I bought it I had planned to do a refin if it turned out not to be an original Jetglo.
My gut told me it was goofy before I bought it. Those things aren't jumping offa trees any way and the odd parts were
fixable. I like the lap steel surround; it's like the '59 that Richard Smith's rare bird article has.

Man, leave town and all the fun starts! FWIW, I had 3 of the four.... Didn't get the switch tip.

Did anybody notice that all the '73 and the '74 basses (I have seen so far) have the axis of the A and D tuners in parallel?
Hence this head stock even looks fake!
There is also another one: with similar head stock, also not quite original condition!
