The body on a Brown Bass is the small standard body. |

Claudio, They are one in the same. The "new" brown bass body is taken from the old Small Standard Series body style. And yes this little one is very tempting. -Ed |

PF-6 would have been the original on a '78. |

Cool! Yes, on this particular bass there appear to be Purpleheart lams between the body wings and the neck. |
