This Univox ‘Beatle Bass’ is in excellent condition and perfect working order. With the popularity of the Fab Four soaring in the mid-60s, Japan filled an ever-growing market for instruments similar to Paul McCartney’s iconic Hofner 500/1 bass. Made by Matsumoku in Nagano, this Univox ‘Model 1920′ is light weight, well balanced on a strap and sounds great through an amp.
The C-shaped bound neck has functional truss rod & is straight with a comfortable deep C profile The original frets are in 90% condition. The slotted scroll headstock sports original tuners that function perfectly and hold pitch well.
The body’s three-tone sunburst finish is in excellent condition, with aged multi-ply binding on the top and back, single ply bound F holes, black pickup covers and original Univox embossed pickguard. Chrome knobs, floating rosewood bridge, and stock trapeze tailpiece also all original.
A great option for an affordable vintage hollow-body bass, with hard case.
