I've still got my old 72 Pbass . It was pristine when I bought it , now it looks like it went through the Boer War.
I traded a Nikon F2 with an 85/1.8 for it back around 74/75 .
I had just joined a touring band and needed a real bass quick . I was told to go for an audition , as it turned out I was the only one that did . I got the job .
Funny ... I've been playing ever since .
