Boy, that looks like it could have been a really nice bass if they had stuck with T-Bird pickups.  Is that a short scale?

That bridge pickup looks like it's a humbucker maybe?

Never seen this. Thanks! Bridge pickup seems to be a double Jazz?

 :rimshot:

But it has advantages, such things as general manoeuvrability aside: Even short scale basses look long on her. That said, didn't she come from Detroit and isn't that a couple of miles away from Baton Rouge? American distances confuse me.  ??? Nice bass butt shot at 0:58.

Oh, it's a mere 1120 miles...
