Sehr schöner Bass!! Bin nie zu einem halbwegs erschwinglichen Preis an diesen Sixtees-Bass geraten, der mich durchaus gereizt hätte......
"The control layout was very similar to the Fender Jaguar, which was introduced the following year. Fender named this the Fender VI. The scale was 30” and shorter than the 34” scale of Precision and Jazz basses. The strings were much thinner than those on standard Fender basses. The instrument came with 3 single coil Fender pickups and a vibrato unit similar to the one on the Jazzmaster.
4 switches
Originally the controls included a single volume and tone potentiometer and three slider on-off switches on the upper bout that controlled which pickup was working.
