Excellent condition featuring double cutaway ash body with three tone sunburst finish, multi-ply black and white pickguard, black plastic thumb rest, two P Bass style pickups, one volume control and one tone control with tall knurled metal barrel knobs, fully adjustable bridge with four steel saddles and decorative metal bridge cover, maple neck, maple fingerboard with black dot inlays starting at the third fret, plastic nut, traditional headstock shape with Eagle abalone logo, single round string tree, four open back tuning machines with clover buttons, four bolt neck fastening plate stamped Made in Japan, two metal strap buttons, and black gig bag.
This 1970s Eagle P Bass is super cool with just a slightly different shape from the traditional Precision Bass. It's set up in very good playing condition and the pickup sounds great. The neck profile is slimmer than that of a P Bass and feels like a profile somewhere between a Jazz Bass and a Precision Bass. This bass is in excellent cosmetic condition with a few signs of play wear here and there including a nick on the body in between the bridge and knobs (see photos). One screw in the pickguard has been moved at the tip by the input jack and the number 1222 is hand engraved into the neck plate. This funky old Japanese bass is quirky and has a lot of character. These instruments are often times neglected over the years and typically do not play well. This one is an exception and plays great. It's ready for a good new home and its next musical journey.
