This is a super cool and hard to find made in Japan Univox Hi-Flyer Bass made during the 1970's! This one is likely a phase 3 model according to other examples listed online. The neck has a fairly thin profile and the 30" scale length feels very approachable to play.
This guitar does show quite a bit of cosmetic wear from over the years that includes various surface scratches, scuffs, dents, and finish chips throughout the body with additional dents along the back of the neck and headstock. The holes from the previous tuners have been filled but are still visible and there are finish cracks underneath the low E and A string tuners. The hardware shows normal tarnishing and the white pickguard has yellowed from over time. The frets have normal play wear for their age but still play well overall. There's some minor fret buzz up on the 12th fret that is not as noticeable when plugged into an amp. All of the electronics work as they should.
The tuners have been replaced, otherwise this bass appears to be original.
Includes the pictured hard case.
