I've owned this series II (SN 78 1203) a month ago and I don't have any information about the bass except the name of the previous owner. Could you find any other data? Thanks

Hi Mica,
 
Thanks for the information. I've already registered the bass. For the history, I'm the fourth owner. Before me, that bass was owned by Carlos Escudero (Barcelona - Spain) who bought it to Jose Latre in 1995(Tarragona - Spain) who bought it to an american guy in 1988 who was the first owner.
