I've had a crush on these things since i first saw one in the 80s... played on a few in the 90s, but never owned until now. Love that punch! Plus, arg, is there are better *looking* bass in the world?

Thanks for anyone's help in tracking down the DOB!

JG, conrads on finally getting your dream bass! Now you can never go back.

This bass was completed on 4/06/04 and shipped to a GC. All your listed specs match up to our records.

Eric, nice! This beauty was completed on 12/23/03. Looks like we had it at a NAMM show before it went to Beaver Felton's Bass Central.
