Hey guys. I know I've been away for some time, only watching and not posting, and probably most of you won't remember me. Not that there is much to remember anyways... But I'm back
So, just got this new bass. Got it from Steve, who is the original owner. Great guy that helped me out with everything in every possible way that I needed. Steve, you rock.
It's a custom Series I with an Europa body shape made in 1998, but trust me, it can pass as brand new.
It has this beautiful, highly figured book matched to center Maple Burl top. Body is solid Mahogany and the neck has the classic Maple/Purple Heart recipe. No back laminate to save on weight.
Controls are not the usual Series I: Instead of Volume/Volume, it has Master Volume/Pan. No LEDs
This bass is a killer. Already took it to two gigs and can't say enough positive things about it. My new standard to which all others will be compared to. Now I just need to finish my rig so I can properly put it through my F-1X.
And, as I got it as an early Christmas gift for myself, here is the first shot of it, in the Christmas spirit! More pics to come when weather gets better.
