Experience the Elderly Difference

This three-quarter sized upright bass sounds ah, oh, Kay! Made in Chicago and ready for your next rockabilly, folk, or bluegrass jam or gig. With a laminate spruce top and maple ply body, and a solid maple neck, the rosewood fingerboard may have been replaced. The holes at end of the fingerboard extension are where  a previously removed pickup lived. Equipped with a sound post, plate tuners and original tailpiece, and a nice newer adjustable bridge. NO CASE. Made in the USA. On consignment.
