I have exactly the same bass. I replaced the stock knobs with metallic dome knobs and it looks good.

I've had this bass for 5 or 6 years and must say it's a great bass for it's value.

I have almost exclusively played my Fender '75 RI for about 6 months, but recently grabbed the old faithful ;)
I had forgotten it's wonderful playability and sound.
To be honest it's not all good, I was sort of disappointed with the sustain of the B-string and the weight of the bass.
For the rest of it I was still nice to get the old bass out for a change :)
