Build record is a tad skimpy from back then, but here's what we know:
 
top and back: Koa
core: Birch
neck: Walnut and Maple short scale
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: mother of pearl
originally sold to our distributor at the time, LD Heater. The card also says NAMM but there's no other explanation.  
 
In 1993 we repaired the tailpiece (wood/brass combo) and the PF-6 card. There's a tracing of the backplate, but it's not clear if that was also replaced at the same time.  
 
There are two registered owners for this bass.  
 
Is this bass in your collection now? If so, please register it.
