It looks similar to the burl maple top the Series I Europa 5 that Pierre-Yves  owns but without the tint. Check the figuring on the upper horn is remarkably similar.

If I had less willpower than money that would have been mine.

Oh my Gosh !!! And it's a 4 string - the way I like my basses !! It's sold already, as you probably noticed, but I don't have that kind of money. That bass is my new screen saver. It's the Bees Knees !!!!
