I think this is the one with a shorter neck. I would like to sell her. I need the blue book.

Hi, Lisa--

The serial number indicates that your guitar was made at the Fullerton Plant (Fender - CBS Era), USA in 1975.

This makes sense because the Music Master bass was not manufactured until 1970.

Here is the Blue Book general info:

MUSICMASTER (U.S. MFG.)
- offset double cutaway asymmetrical ash body, bolt-on maple neck, 19-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlay, four-on-one-side tuners, fixed bridge, black pickguard, thumb rest, one single coil covered pickup, two knobs (v, tone), chrome hardware, available in Black, Blue, Red, or White finish, mfg. 1970-1983

Is it possible that the pick guard was replaced?
Also--your bass has only one knob. I am wondering if you have more information about this bass--when did you buy it and where? Do you have a guarantee that it is original?

Here is the pricing info from the Blue Book:

1970-1978
Mint $700
Exc.+ $600
Exc. $500
Avg.+ $425
Avg. $375
General $325
