Hi! I picked this bass up a few weeks ago to keep my Series II company. What if anything can you tell me about it. Thanks!
 
Cheers,
Jim

Hi Jim,
 
Here's what I found in the instrument file:
 
top: Walnut
body: Mahogany
neck: 3-piece Maple
scale: 32 medium
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid (plastic) ovals
electronics: Spoiler (volume, filter, Q-switch, rotary pickup selector switch, mono output)
originally made for: Encore Music, SC
birthday: November 14, 1983
 
The original owner was from South Carolina and purchased on November 16, 1983. The second owner purchased on January 13, 1989 and was also from South Carolina.
