Hi Michael, Here's what I found out about 78-1249: Series I MBI4 top and back: Coco Bolo body: Mahogany neck: Maple and Purpleheart, 32" medium scale fingerboard: Ebony with mother of pearl inlays pickups: SC-1 and HX controls: Series I birthday: September 21, 1978 originally built for: Rothchild In 1999 the bass was registered to an individual in TN who just purchaed it from a friend. He wrote to us and informed us that the bass was in "fabulous condition. I had to replace the 5th fret inlay (can't even tell the difference) and I had the case reupholstered with this beautiful gold and red Victorian velvet." He also mentioned there was a minor ding in the finish by the bridge. Sounds cool! |
