It's a beautiful transparent teal. I've owned it for about 15 years.

That's a nice bass, Ross. 

I reckon Mica's still unpacking boxes from the Wiljan Ct. exodus, so it may be a little while before she gets back to these. I'll go ahead and guess yours is an all maple Essence, (in the obvious color scheme) and based on the serial number, she must have left home in the first few days of January 1992.
