This well-loved Bass VI remains entirely original, a rarity in the world of vintage instruments. Every piece of hardware – the three pickup switches, the volume knob, the tone knob, and the tremolo bar – is intact and ready to make music once again.
The ash body, adorned with the original Olympic White finish, has mellowed into a warm, creamy hue, a testament to its rich history. The tortoiseshell pickguard, though showing a slight shrinkage with age, adds a touch of classic elegance.
A Sound That Shaped an Era
Plugging into this Bass VI is like stepping back in time to the vibrant music scene of the 1960s. Its unique six-string configuration, capable of both deep bass lines and jangly guitar-like tones, found favor with musicians from the Beatles to Jack Bruce.
