What Do the Conn Basses Look Like?
This page contains a list of Basses for which I have acceptable quality pictures, so you can see what they look like. My HTML skill is insufficient to incorporate this into the model number page (which would make sense) and also get the colors correct. Sorry about that.
If you have a good quality picture of an instrument not on this list, please contact me.
