Hi Jimmy, Here's what I found out about your Series I bass: 81-1798 MSB-I: top and back: Koa body: Mahogany neck: Maple and Purpleheart, 32" medium scale fingerboard: Ebony with mother of pearl oval inlays originally sold to: Guitar Center birthday: March 18, 1981 The 1/4" is a stereo jack, so if you use a regular mono guitar cable, you will only get sound from one pickup. I can mail a service sheet to you with instructions on how to rewire the jack to mono. Just email your mailing address to me mica@alembic.com Until you change the 1/4" outpu to mono, you can use it directly with headphones. Please note that the internal batteries will only last about 40 hours on this model. It's the primary reason Series I and II basses come with a power supply. If you haven't already registered your bass, please do so. Hope you are enjoying your new-to-you bass! |
