ZENTA 60'S VINTAGE JAPANESE BASS GUITAR SHORT SCALE NR


Zenta sixties vintage solid short scale (76cm) Telecaster bass guitar, made in Japan. In very good condition and full and proper working order.
A relatively small and light bass guitar typical of those made in the far east during the 60's/70's. The guitar is based on the Telecaster shape and style and is complete and original and even has the tailpiece cover. The neck is fairly straight with just a dip of about 2mm with no wear to the frets (or any evidence of honing etc.) and none to the rosewood fingerboard, the profile is comfortable and the action is good (44mm nut)
The body is in very good condition for its age though inevitably there are some knocks and dings to the edges but nothing unsightly, all the electrics work properly and smoothly and it has a punchy authentic sixties 'beat' sound with s good range of tone.
