Celebrating a new Bass day! Bought from the original owner and spent the evening cleaning and setting it up. I would appreciate any avail info on the bass. It was originally bought in CA. Under the tail piece the wood looks more red than brown. Padauk perhaps??

Amazing how dark that wood became over time!  Congrats on the new-to-you bass!  :)
