I don't blame him for trying to hide it.

What's he got it leaning against ?!?! Cool bass though.

Really? Anyone who got into playing in the 70s will know that this was the sort of bass you bought only because you couldn't even afford one of the less authentic Fender copies like a Columbus or Avon badged instrument. They were horrible in every way. Maybe this would be OK as a prop for a retro video set in the 70s, but as a usable instrument? never!

Looks like genuine rosewood, not sure about the bass though...

Lol, I'm purely appreciating it from a 60's deep funk aesthetic. Hordes of obscure US bands posing for publicity shots and never a Fender...
