Can you give me the build record and any other history for this Distillate?
 
I am purchasing this bass, and want to know as much about it as possible.
 
Supposedly the electronics were sent to you for repair just recently.
 
Thanks,
Curt

Hi Curt,
 
Here's what I found out about your bass:
 
top: Walnut
accent: isn't recorded, probably doesn't have one
body: Mahogany
neck: Maple and Purpleheart, 32 medium scale
fingerboard: Ebony, pearloid oval inlays
pickups: AXY
controls: pickup selector switch, volume, filter, Q switch, bass cut/flat/boost, treble cut/flat/boost, mono output
birthday: March 24, 1986
originally built for: not recorded
 
Can't confirm the electronics servicing, there's a mighty big stack of stuff too file. You can post a picture of the electronics, and I can let you know if they have been upgraded.
