     Butchered in NJ Ebay 200859787522

    It has been fitted with a Badass bridge and had been fitted with newer Rickenbacher tuners but has the original Grover tuners in place again which work fine, however the screw holes remain on the back of the head stock. The rest of the bass remains original ( except of course the modified bridge pickup cover) . There is some minor belt buckle grazing on the back other than that the bass is in extremely good condition. All the checker board binding is in excellent shape, the neck is unblemished and true and the frets are in good condition, a beautiful bass to look at and to play.
