USED AMPEG / Little Stud Natural 1970s Active MOD Natural [11]

70's Japanese made, Ampeg little stud bass.
The body is made of laminated wood with sen (an alternative to ash) on the top and back. Sen was often used on older Japanese models. The neck is also made of stacked wood, and the fingerboard surface is maple. The scale is 33.5" and the nut width is about 44mm. The preamp is a Korean brand G&B 2Band EQ. In order to replace the PU and install the preamp, the cavity was extended with a counterbore and the pickguard was replaced.

The battery for the preamp is located under the pickguard. There are some extra screw holes for pickguard mounting and some screw holes for PU mounting. The bridge has been replaced.
The body has scratches, dings, peeling paint, and paint cracks. The pickguard has minor picking scratches throughout. There are paint cracks mainly on the top of the body. Large and small dents are scattered throughout. The holes on both sides of the bridge are screw holes for bridge covers. There are dents with peeling paint on the back of the neck on the 3rd and 8th floor, and small wood chips and scratches on the tip of the back of the head. The frets have been changed, and short frets of the wrong length have been driven into the low and high positions a little too aggressively. There is also a chip on the fingerboard surface from the fret replacement. There is also a crack on the pickguard due to tightening. There are also some cracks on the pickguard due to tightening.
