Do you know what a Pfretzschner actually is? It can be any bass that the importer stuck that label in. I have seen many and they were not all the same except for the label, made in USA! The label that is.
Integral Bar? YES, it's not a real bar so get it shaved out and put a real bar in to save the bass. How was the crack fixed under the bar area?
