Hi,

I just pulled my handmade 4-string out of the closet. It must have been a few years since i last picked it up and it was still in tune!

I would love to know what vintage it is. I bought it used in the late 80's or early 90's. It has "108" stamped on the back of the headstock, has a Badass bridge and Schaller tuning machines. It is mostly figure maple with mahogany and a rosewood fretboard.

I was thinking of selling it but it plays so nicely I'm having second thoughts.

Anything you can tell me about it origins would be greatly appreciated.

MM
