Hi Mica,

I bought this beauty yesterday on Ebay Germany... ☺️ Expect her to arrive next week...

Can you tell me some more about the bass, please... First owner?

Thanks in advance! 😉

Is that the one with five strings, that was beautiful bass!

The bass player’s function, along with the drums, is to be the engine that drives the car… everything else is merely colours.

Hmmm... can you double check the serial number? I'm showing as a 4-string Orion in Walnut

Hi Mica,

Ups has just delivered the bass from Germany. After a quick examination seen that the number is wrong, sorry... The 8 is a 6... :-\ The real serialnumber is 99OW12160...

Thanks again!

Cheers,


Yasmine
