Hey Mica...this is that beautiful 84' KOA Top Spoiler I just purchased. I have owned a few of these...this is the nicest.
Hoping to get some info. Thanks....working my way to having a Series custom built after a visit to the mother-ship.

Yes it is a beautiful Koa top Mica ...lol. Thank you so much. I am going to have a birthday party for the bass.
I believe I will be putting a Fatboy in the bridge position.
