Your folks were very much on their game. What can you tell me about it? dw mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 3984 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Thursday, January 11, 2007 - 5:25 pm:    Hi David, Here's what I can tell you - there's not a lot of detail in the early records: top and back: teack body core: Oak neck: Walnut (see my note below) scale: 34" long originally made for: LD Heater, OR birthday: June 4, 1974 The preamp card was exchanged for a rebuilt one in 1992. I made a note in the file that this bass was for sale at Bass Northwest January 8, 2002. I also made a note about the neck. It looked like the outside pair of woods was Walnut, but there are 2 lighter stripes that are probably either Maple or Beech. The center laminate looked darker, I thought it might be Vermilion, Purpleheart or Walnut, but I really couldn't tell! dadabass2001 Senior Member Username: dadabass2001 Post Number: 732 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Thursday, January 11, 2007 - 6:46 pm:    Hi David, Man, you gotta post some pics of this baby.
