Jolana Tajfun (Typhoon) Bass, 1964

Jolana Tajfun (Typhoon) and Tajfun II came out in 1964. Jolana started making basses in the beginning of the 60's. The first Jolana bass models were Basso IV and it's sixstring version Pedro. Tajfun was basically the same instrument with some upgrades. The body has a deeper cutout for easier upper fret access, the controls were changed from volume, tone and rotating switch to sort of the mid' 60 Jolana scheme with individual on/off switches for each pickup and a master volume - see 1963 Futurama III with similar arrangement. http://www.cheesyguitars.com
