A great lil shortscale bass

Used it for some years as my main bass, it plays and sounds great. My biggest complaint is that the old factory output jack is not the most reliable after 30 years, but me being me I really want to keep this bass as original as possible. If you're in the market for one be prepared to have the binding replaced, it reacts with the paint over the decades and shrivles up, and falls off, so far my one is the only one I think I've seen with intact original binding. Other than this, if you manage to find a nicely preserved one, it's a great bass.

Not a bad for Soviet times

After Jolana iris, I bought this Forest right away, the sound then seemed just fantastic compared to the Urals, Tonics and so on. In the USSR, tools from Japan and the United States were insanely expensive.
