It'd be interesting to know more! link (Message edited by davehouck on June 23, 2006) 57basstra Intermediate Member Username: 57basstra Post Number: 125 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Friday, June 23, 2006 - 9:43 am:    Interesting dela217 Senior Member Username: dela217 Post Number: 679 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Friday, June 23, 2006 - 11:32 am:    A friend of mine has a relative that works in the memrobilia department at Hard Rock. I have already requested detailed pics. I hope she can come through for us. This looks like a good one! From that side pic, it looks like it has a scroll, brass control plate, and clear pickups. Check out those inlays! davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 3988 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, June 23, 2006 - 12:19 pm:    This might be a little helpful. Series electronics, Alembic bridge, F hole. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 3989 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, June 23, 2006 - 12:48 pm:    Now that I've stared at it for a while, I'm not sure about the bridge. The electronics look like a set of Series I with a volume control. I'm guessing sometime between 1970 and 1974. dela217 Senior Member Username: dela217 Post Number: 681 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Tuesday, June 27, 2006 - 7:42 am:    Looks like the electronics that I have on my 1972 bass. I see front mounted volume controls and a stereo/mono switch. I really like this setup a lot.
