I picked up this Alembic Persuader from eBay couple of months ago. However, the second number is hard to figure out whether it's 8 or 3. So it could be 88P5017 or 83P5017, even though t\The seller stated that it's 88 Persuader. Could you please give me more information about my Alembic?

5017 is in the 1988 range, not 1983 - I have 88S4828.

fingerboard: Ebony with pearloid oval inalys

There is one previous registered owner in Michigan who purchased the bass in 1989.
