That is certainly one heck of a way to make an entrance.  
Congrats on the bass

Hi Carl,  
 
Here's the details I found out about your bass:
 
top: Superb Walnut
accent: Maple laminate
body: Mahogany
neck: 5-piece Maple with 4 Walnut pinstripes
scale: 34 long
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
pickups: MXY56
controls: volume, pan, filter, Q-switch, bass cut/flat/boost, treble cut/flat/boost, mono output
originally made for: Station Music, Germany
birthday: June 19, 1998
 
This bass has a duplicate sequential serial number of 11590 which is shares with an Essence bass (98K11590).  
 
I totally remember this wood - it's really an awesome example of Nature's hand.
