Bridge isn't original but otherwise very nice.

Cheers Musky.
Nobody else with tuppence worth to chip in, or are you all gonna be late bidders

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

I would imagine this will probably sell for around a grand, due to nimber of bidders and time left. If you bid for it, I hope you get a good deal if you win

All looks good & original to me - can't see what's not original about the bridge Musky?

Late 70s P bridges didn't have threaded 'spiral' barrels.

Single-groove barrel bridges were fitted from 1969 onwards (with a long 'G' intonation screw) and the 'standard' single-groove barrel bridge appeared from 1972.

My 1976 P is 100% original (I bought it in 1976) and it has single-groove barrels.

Edit: I'm not saying there's necessarily anything wrong with this bass, by the way.

Look carefully at the pics. Is it just me, or is the neck/body join a bit squiffy? I'm sure I can see misalignment and a biggish gap in the neck pocket.

[Thunderbird]

I see thanks discreet and mr Japanaxe you could be correct looks like the neck sits to the left a tiny bit but that could just be how the pictures been taken?

Aha! Yes that did cross my mind but all mine have got threaded saddles, except the BadAss I suppose 'cos they're all 'mock vintage'
