1967 Goya Panther II Bass Sunburst, Very Good, $1,499.00

They don’t get much cooler than this Goya Panther II! This Italian-made companion to the Goya Rangemaster guitar features a unique off-set double cutaway contoured body with a gorgeous sunburst finish and has a 31” scale. The classic sunburst finish seems to fairly rare for the Panthers as most we have seen have had a cherry sunburst finish. It is nicely coupled with a white Goya-branded pickguard. The neck has a very slim feel, especially up towards the nut where it measures 1 9/16th”. It sports a rosewood fingerboard with 21 frets and the distinctive elongated Goya headstock design. The two single coil pickups are controlled by a crazy push-button system that allows for either individual pickup selection, both pickups, or “off” (a mute switch). Other controls include a master volume control and three push button tone selection controls. It looks as though the master volume knob was replaced at one point being that most Panther basses we see have a large vintage radio dial-esque knob as opposed to the small black knob on this Panther. Cosmetically this bass has definitely been played, with a decent amount of scratches and finish dings especially around the lower bout of the back and top of the body. The bass has been setup by our staff guitar tech and all electronics have been gone over and tested. It weighs in at about 7 lbs 11 ounces. Overall this Panther bass is a fantastic and intriguing-looking instrument that would make an excellent addition to any bassist’s arsenal! No case included.
