Hey Guys This is My first post!



I was wondering if you could help me identify my bass guitar. I found it in my parent's closet about 10 years ago, and dusted it off and it became my starter bass. Its short neck also.
The only identification is on the back a small raggedy sticker that says "Made in Korea" near the tuning pegs. I think the bass was my uncle's when he was in high school so it must be at least 20 - 30 years old if not older.
Here are some pictures.

Most likely an Epiphone Bass of that era.

It is not an Epiphone and it is not a Gibson. It looks like a low cost knock off.
