1960 Supro Pocket Bass

Essentially a guitar body and neck with a bass set-up, the Pocket Rocket wasdesigned as a 3/4 size instrument in its day. Nonetheless it is a viable,easy-to-play, great sounding, and vintage-chic instrument. 24-3/4" supershort scale, black painted wood body and neck, Brazilian rosewoodfingerboard and bridge. The guitar employs two pickups - a humbucker-sizedsingle coil in the neck position and a piezo transducer built into thewooden bridge. These pickups are controlled by a master volume and a blend,the latter of which somewhat functions as a tone by swinging the outputbetween the two pickups. The instrument is in excellent original condition,with no modifications or repairs. There is one noticeable ouch on the lowerbass edge, treble side. The original chipboard case is included.
