,Found this baby coupled with the exact same model,finish,build but a 6-string(presumably consecutive serial no.)in a store in Singapore called the Swee Lee Company.Could you please supply the build info for mine, and provide any clues as to how they ended up in Singapore.I believe you have an outlet in Thailand(?) but does it\s opening date coincide with the build date?Thanks for creating the strativarius of the bass world.Smiley,happy customer.

Serial number request for 91P6666.She\s a ripper mate!Purchased at the Swee Lee Music Company in Singa\s,keeping a very similar 6 string model company,which in retrospect,I wish I\d purchased as well.I\d also appreciate a vague monetary value.Absolutely perfect condition.

Here's the details from the instrument file:
 
top: Quilted Maple
accent: Walnut laminate
body: Mahogany
body shape: Spoiler
neck: 7-piece Maple and Purpleheart
scale: 34 long
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
pickups: AXY
controls: volume x2, filter, mono output
originally made for: Swee Lee, Singapore
birthday: August 2, 1991 (leo)
 
Swee Lee was our importer in Singapore at the time this bass was made. I do recall them getting many 6-string Spoilers and Persuaders. Since they bought in a large group, frequently the serial numbers would be sequential.

Cheers for that Mica,much appreciated.You\ve given me a guilt trip about the time that you were sending this though, being new years and all.I hope you managed a few beers before the night was out.Having perused your web site quite extensively I\m mightily impressed.I will own a draon wing, one way or the other, before I die.Expect an order in the future.I\ll also try and get some pic\s posted in the not too distant future of the persauder.Thanks once again and I hope you had an enjoyable festive season too. Please excuse my impatience.
