I inherited this guitar from my late brother, Richard "Obe" Oblinger, who was a Travis Bean employee from 1975 until 1979. It is a black painted fretless bass with an ebony fingerboard. Serial no. 13. On the back of the neck base is the inscription "17 May, 1975 for Richard Oblinger" and is signed "Travis Bean '75" and "Marc McElwee". May 17, 1975 was my brothers 25th birthday.
