Thornybank Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) [i][b]dognofski gets it, subject to, etc.[/b][/i] Workspace clearance turns up a playable, portably dinky, cheap enuff Hohner Jack. Good for a first fretless, project bass, travel piece, practice room loaner, owt other excuse.... Roughish, yes. Playish, yes +. Cheap, yes. Solid utilitarian value @ £112 delivered. Photos perhaps over-highlight the flaws....

[/i] [i]Fully working. V/V/activeT&B, active bypass switch.[/i] [i]Pliers-and-filler de-fret, not pretty but plays fine. [/i] [i]Worst bit is over the body, the rest of the board is much better.[/i] [i]Nasty scratch in the top done by clumsy bridge clamp tightening - not quite as bad in reality as the flash makes it look.[/i] [i]No battery cover but the battery is nice and tight and has no tendency to fall out. [/i] [i]The other 'battery' is the preamp level control trimmer housing.[/i] Edited September 1, 2012 by Thornybank
