Hello, Roberto,
 
Here is the what I've got in the instrument file:
 
top: Flame Walnut
accent: Walnut and Purpleheart pinstripes
body: Mahogany
neck: Maple and Purpleheart, 34 long scale
fingerboard: EBony with pearloid ovals
pickups: MXY56
controls: Europa*
originally made for: Subentra Group, Indonesia
birthday: June 23, 1993
 
Wow - you have another world traveller bass!
 
*The Europa controls are volume, pan, filter, 2-position Q switch, bass boost/cut switch, treble boost/cut switch.
 
The quick tone switches are bass and treble and are not individual switches for the pickups. Each switch provides 6db boost, flat, and 6db cut.
 
The low-pass filter is adjustable from 350Hz-6KHz. The Q switch is flat when in the up position while playing. Pushing it down adds an 8dB boost to the frequency that the filter is tuned to.

Thanks Mica!
Today the bass is going to a new home.
My friend bought it and it is going to Sydney!
I decide to sell it cause I cant handle the thick
neck and wider spacing than my 2 Persuaders.
