Serial Number history for 88F4928 Persuader or Europa?
« on: March 30, 2024, 02:26:25 PM »
Per the website the SN refers to a Persuader but the body of my bass sure looks like a Europa??   Any ideas on what this is?
Sure has been a wonderful bass!
Also has the name Mark Trails on the plate.  Any idea who that is?


thank you
Tom

That beautiful bass is the 'Vector' body. Often these were marked with an F letter code in the serial number. I think they were a variation of the Persuader.


Welcome.   :)

Thanks.  it is very beautiful.  I think the top is actually Ebony but not 100% sure.

very interesting comment about the Vector body. 

Hopefully I can get more detail from Mica if she can get to it.

meanwhile I keep loving it!!
