i've had this for almost a year now, and was going to buy a new bridge to put on it as the one on it right now is a bit.... primitive.... any way, its a short scale tulip bass and im guessing it was made in (judging by the caveman like bridge) early 60s i'll let it go for 40, and include the set of D'Addario short scale strings i bought for it aswell i couldnt find a picture of itt, and lots my cable for my camera, so this is the guitar kay made (its the same shape)
