1974 Kent Violin Bass 30-inch Scale Superbly Crafted In Japan + Vintage Hard Case
Craftsmanship you cannot find anymore:
- 8-Ply Binding front body
- 4-Ply Binding headstock
- Triple-Bound neck and front plates
- Bound F-holes
- Beautiful inlays on neck, headstock, and body
- Nut Fret + 22 Frets + Adjustable Saddles for superior tuning and intonation
- Neck Truss
Plays smoothly with flat-wound strings. Beautiful tone electric or acoustic. Frets in very good condition. Pickups and switch work great. Pot wiring needs to be checked as volume pots do not tone down and volume is only controlled at the amp.
The body has a beautiful shine with vintage crackling that gives it lots of character. Very few nicks and scratches for a 50-year-old instrument. Strap buttons have been moved in a past life leaving extra holes that can be patched if desired. Please inspect high resolution pictures carefully.
Tailpiece cover is not original, can be used with or without it.
Vintage silver-blue tolex hard case is not original and has wear and tear as pictured, giving it lots of character.
