Same opinion as before but the neck was broken from the body and the repair is not good. Unless the button was repaired from the inside with a button graft, the current repair is a time bomb. This bass in that condition ha very little value if any. Mainly because the correct repairs will exceed the value of the repaired bass. This is quite common with older cheaper factory basses or basses that are just repaired poorly.
