Black Widow was a perfect name given to this bass. It had a black finish with a large red pad on the backside that had an hourglass design stitched into it, what else could it be called? It was a really cool looking and sounding instrument which was mostly made in Japan during the early 1970s.
Sold by amplifier maker Acoustic, it was actually manufactured by several different companies during its brief lifespan. One of these companies was Mosrite, as Semie Moseley reportedly made a few hundred Black Widow guitars and basses.
