Having said this, there are a lot worse guitars out there, and as well as being historically important, the 1820 bass can certainly provide the goods when required. The Pathfinder 15R (15 watts, R for Reverb and 8' Bulldog speaker over the 6.5' in the 10) was discontinued several years ago and, in good shape, they run about 150-175 or so on Ebay. I would junk it and just buy a new one if the cost is more then this. Heres a track recorded with a Danelectro Barritone through the Pathfinder.

These new Epiphones were based on existing Matsumoku guitars, sharing body shapes, and hardware, but the Epiphone line was somewhat upgraded, with inlaid logos and a 2x2 peghead configuration. Here's the rub: Carroll's amp is a Vox Pathfinder 15R. The Matsumoku factory had been producing guitars for export for some time, but the 1820 bass (alongside a number of guitar models and the 5120 electric acoustic bass) were the first Epiphone models to be made there. By the end of the 1960s, a decision had been made to move Epiphone guitar production from the USA (at the Kalamazoo plant where Gibson guitars were made), to Matsumoto in Japan, creating a line of guitars and basses significantly less expensive than the USA-built models (actually less than half the price).
