Old Bass ID

[Adam Linz]

Ken and Tom thanks for chiming in. This is what I suspected but wanted to run it by all you masters first. That punch hole in the players side rib says Blockless to me. I was just hoping it was older than feared. It does sound pretty good right now and my friend didn't pay that much for it. I think if we get the back and neck straightened out it will be a happier bass, that is until that bass bar sinks anymore. Remember Ken that things cost a little less here in the Plains States and we have great luthier here that gave us a good quote on getting her back to healthy. So she should be smiling soon. We should probably pull that label out as well. No sense in perpetuating a myth any further. Thanks for the info as always. I learn so much here that will benefit future players and buyers.
