1969 Gibson Melody Maker Bass - 
Sparkling Burgundy Metallic
This vintage Gibson Melody Maker bass from 1969 features a stunning aged Sparkling Burgundy Metallic finish.

Condition: The finish displays typical checking on the body and back of the neck, adding to its vintage character.
There is a small crack in the upper pickguard.
Includes the original chipboard case.
