Just came across this on the bay. It might just be the angle at which it was photographed but there is something about this double pickup configuration that seems out of the norm, checked the site and can't find a match ???

Cheers Damian

Do you think the added J was at the factory or a players refurb?

Never really noticed until earlier just how straight the headstock profile is on those....worse than a Roman road

Someone's added that and the 3 way switch.

Don't say the word 'factory' or 'prototype' it'll be up in the £500's.... Laughing

Hey Damian, no gave this one a miss, still using my Futurama when the gigs come up but will probably get a Thunder Bass at some stage, just fighting for room as per usual.

Loving some of your new acquisitions btw, it's finding those hidden gems that must surely be a bonus  Smile
