1976 Fender Mustang Bass maple neck, sunburst finish USA made.
A lovely little 30.5 short scale bass with through body stringing. The original sunburst finish has lots of paint wear, dings and some bucklerash. The neck also has plenty of marks and dings and a chip out of the fingerboard near the 3rd fret. Frets have obvious play-wear but lots of life left in them. Neck is straight and the truss-rod operates as it ought too. It's lightweight and well balanced at around 3.6 kgs. Looks like a one piece ash body and the rarer maple neck.
It's a very cool original vintage Fender and always turns heads. All electrics including the Mustang split pickup and the controls, pots and wiring appear original It's also got the old earth/ground plates under the pickup and control plate. It's a surprisingly loud and punchy bass for its size. The scratchplate is a little warped and the thumbrest a replacement. Matching serial number sticker on underside of the scratchplate and the usual neck stamps. Comes with an old non Fender contemporary case.
Sorry U.K. only.
I'd guess it's a niche instrument due to its diminutive stature however it is a genuine very usable vintage Fender 'of a certain age'. Tina Weymouth, Bill Wyman and Alan Lancaster were notable users of the bass. Great for smaller players. Sold
