Hi there!
I bought this 1994 Epic 4 in Hamburg, Germany.
So now I am curious about some details concerning this bass.
Thank You very much and kind greetings from Northern Germany.
M.S.

Hi Martin, welcome to the club and welcome from northern Wisconsin!
 
Please be patient as it can take awhile for Mica to dig up the build card.
 
I'm quite certain the top is zebra wood.

Hi Paul, thanx for the welcome - and concerning the zebra wood: that's what I also considered ;-)
