I'll just say you're probably right, you probably can't get them to make you a Series instrument for that price - especially since they had the back done with Cocobola and the Ebony runners in the neck (which wasn't mentioned in the write up), those aren't cheap from memory of the quote I was given. That and I just noticed they recently raised the prices from when I had my Essence/Series build priced out and in the process of being finished presently, so I guess I ended up getting a great price on the Europa 4 string series II I just purchased (since I didn't pay anything close to their original asking price :)

It really is a beautiful instrument, thank you! It sounds amazing as you'd expect, sort of bummed I didn't go Series on my first build now - glad I did on the Essence...

I just checked and that series II 5 string is no longer available. So someone has got a real beauty. I doubt at that price anyone would have bought it to flip.

Anyone here grab it?
