Hi Bernhard, welcome to the Club!
 
That's a pretty bad MK Signature (in a good way, of course). Would love to see some closeups of that cocobolo, it looks absolutely fabulous.

Hi adriaan,  but it is ridicolous scalling down each picture to 150 kb

Molten lava! I could stare at that cocobolo for hours on end.

I like that headstock - I knew about the signature on the Stanley Clarke headstock but not the Mark King. Post it in my Show Your Headstocks thread (http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=1899) if you haven't already!

Hey Bernhard, welcome to the forum!
The top on your bass is one of the most beautiful cocobolo pieces I have ever seen. Very intense!!
