Hi Timothy,

this is a very nice "Oldie"! Can you tell us something about the woods of your wife?

Best wishes from Germany

Welcome aboard!

Man, that looks nice! We should see if we can start a section for short mp3 clips of members basses. I'd bet this one sounds great!

You have one of those nice early basses with the screw through the hum cancellor. That intrigues me. I love it!

Guten Tag Harald and Aloha to everyone!

Wife is made of California walnut and maple and the body is semi-hollow which helps on those long sets. If you look closely at the pickups, you'll see the wear spots I've created with my thumb over the years. I've created a small pit over the hum-cancel pickup and it's my main ID for the wife.

You're all welcome to play around with my wife but only if I can watch!
