Mica,

Thanks very much. Couple more questions

What do you mean by upgrade:
"electronics: Series II (these have the current "upgrade")"?

Also, are you sure that the back is also Coco Bolo?

Yikes, you're right! This bass has a top laminate only.

This means that the electronics are the current version and will not have a directional or high frequency noise. Older basses without this modification can have these problems.
