Jolana Iris Bass – Vintage Electric Bass Guitar – Made in Czechoslovakia – Blue Finish

A distinctive vintage Jolana Iris Bass, manufactured in former Czechoslovakia. This unusual electric bass features a striking metallic blue finish, a semi-hollow body design with an F-hole, and characteristic vintage hardware.

An interesting instrument for collectors, vintage bass enthusiasts, and musicians who appreciate unique European-made instruments.

General Description

The Jolana Iris Bass is a vintage electric bass produced in Czechoslovakia. Jolana instruments are known for their distinctive designs, unconventional electronics, and characteristic Eastern European craftsmanship.

This example features a beautiful metallic blue body, black pickguard with white binding, two pickups, and a distinctive bridge and tailpiece construction.

The bass is equipped with a six-position pickup selector switch, offering different electronic configurations. However, the neck pickup currently does not produce sound and requires inspection or repair.

The bridge pickup is working, meaning that three of the six switch positions currently produce the same sound.

The instrument shows signs of age and use, consistent with its vintage character.
