Mica,
 
Thanks very much. Couple more questions
 
What do you mean by upgrade:
 electronics: Series II (these have the current upgrade)?  
 
Also, are you sure that the back is also Coco Bolo?

Yikes, you're right! This bass has a top laminate only.  
 
This means that the electronics are the current version and will not have a directional or high frequency noise. Older basses without this modification can have these problems.
