Custom Hagstrom Futurama bass sixties red

Hagstrom Futurama bass made in Sweden during the early sixties. The back of the body is covered in the original red vinyl and the front is a moulded plastic cover in red and cream with the ''cheesegrater'' panel in the middle - many of these are missing. Incorporated in the plastic front are the two black pickups with a single volume control. There are also four switches - two which are on/off pickup switches and the other two are tone controls.

The black neck is bolted on and is an excellent condition, and the neckplate is stamped with the serial number. The fingerboard has 21 frets and the black headstock has the ''Futurama'' logo and the four on a side Van Ghent covered tuners which are very sought after.

The vinyl covering on the back shows some shrinkage which is very common and a few small places missing a little vinyl; otherwise, this bass is in a good condition, very playable and at present is strung with flatwounds. It comes in a rectangular hardcase.
