As is typical with Guitar Center, the build sheet was missing when I bought this instrument in 1999.
I just want to take advantage of this service, and get some info on this bass from Alembic.

Hi John,
 
Here's what I found in the file for your bass:
 
Series I bass - ILB4 97-11204
 
top and back: Quilted Maple
accent laminates: Purpleheart
body: Mahogany
neck: 7-piece Maple and Purpleheart
fingerboard: Ebony with mother of pearl ovals
pickups: SC-1 and HX
controls: Series I
hardware: chrome plated brass
originally made for: Guitar Center, Chicago
birthday: not recorded, but must be December 1997. There is a note this was shipped to the store on January 15, 1998.  
 
The only other note I have is one from my mom in August of 2002 with your name on it and that of another person in MA.

Thanks for that, Mica!
