philw Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Anybody else noticed this? http://thebassgallery.com/pro-iie.html Not only does the bass have a headstock shape I've not seen before, at £2k it looks a bit of a steal. P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I was lusting after this earlier today. If it had been a lighter colour I would now be selling kids, kidneys, knackers, and anything else I can get my hands on that begins with 'K'.

TrevorR Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Interesting Pro IIE. There are a couple of anomalies about the shape... That is an unusual profile to the headstock but I think I've seen that once or twice before. The upper horn is a little bit elongated compared to most Pro models. I wonder if it was a very early production model while the series details were still bedding in (some very early Pros didn't have the mulkalungu stringers in the outer edge of the headstock. Or maybe it was a variant special order... Nice bass though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeswals Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 It looked to me that the headstock only looked th way because of the camera angle. No? In the straight shot of the whole bass the head looks normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the top horn and counting the fret where the strap button lines up ( about 14 1/2), it's much the same as mine. Even though it still looks oddly long in the pics to me. The lack of any real background reference makes it harder. Lovely Pro, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
