I have no connection with the sale or seller.

I had to check my case.

That body zebrawood top looks really familiar. 😳
The pattern on the Goodwill bass gets tighter towards the bridge, mine is flip flopped.  Curious to know the serial number.

See my showcase link below for pattern comparison.

It's FS85D3584. Someone wrote in about it and we confirmed it's a standard Distillate. File is marked Factory Second, but there's no mention as to why.

Thank you Mica.
Mine is 84D3204.
The grain spacing/ pattern certainly looks similar.
