Northwest Vintage Guitars brings you a cool 32" scale Greco PXB-80 Warwick style PJ Bass from 1990. It's a great player and sounds great with the active boost and the balance/volume/tone layout. Very versatile and very cool. And check out all the mojo and patina on this beauty. She's got stories to tell and adventures to seek, but her greatest desire is to be played.
Greco started recreating their iconic headstock from their early years and featured them on some models in the early 90's. The Warwick inspired PXB 80 and 100 got these "Retro" headstocks based on designs from the late 60s. Looks like a Flip-flop or a sandal.
The Proprietary PDuce Pickups cover all the basses for the PJ Platform delivering everything from deep, room-filling lows, to the honky funky mid forward tones. Everything you need and a little more.
The Alder body is very resonant on this one. It vibrates and rumbles in your hand even when unplugged. It's weighs a perfect and very well-balanced 8.06 lbs on the digital scale. There's very little fret wear and we suspect its still on the factory fret dressing telling us the scattered nicks and dings are not from plyawear, she just had a bit of rough handling. We call this "bedroom wear". The Truss rod turns both ways and is adjusted for optimum relief and playability. Check out the high mass Brass Bridge with huge saddles and the Tone Bars on the back of the body that sandwiches all that brass to the body. It's a Yamaha inspired design that drastically improves the transmission of vibrations to the body. The Brass nut is the Fender "A" width 1.5" and the Maple neck is sleek and fast measuring .76" at the first fret and .92" at the 12th where the fretboard is 2.11" wide. The dark and luxurious Rosewood fretboard has been reconditioned, oiled, and hand rubbed to perfection.
She has a long life ahead of her. The control knobs are non-original, gig bag in photos included.
