(x) Series II Serial #0212791 USA

[Johnston]

Could you help me find the original production specifications for my bass?  I only have a carbon copy of the phone write-up order and it's almost illegible.  I've inherited this bass and would appreciate any information you may have on it.  Thanks.

Johnston, please post a few pictures.  Members here can often help identify features prior to the build sheet information being found and posted. 

Not sure if I should offer condolences or congratulations on your inheritance.  Please understand this is a good community with a lot of compassion and a gift of sharing knowledge about these great instruments.

Is this the bass by any chance?

The serial number looks right.

My apologies.  Evidently one picture didn't load.  Here's another.
