Looks like a nice bass, especially for those who are more into the short/medium scale end of things.

Looks in really great conditions, at least visually.

I own 81 - 1826 and it's also zebrawood... it's like the long lost brother! Seems in excellent shape.

Well, I own it now! It is amazingly clean! I always found the large body basses to balance the best as a medium scale, and I also don't have to reach like crazy to get to the first position. This bass is very light for a Series I, and has outstanding low end and clarity. Those two things are usually mutually exclusive, but, I have to say, this is the best of both worlds.
