Seen this on eBay for sale here in the UK and keen to know what you can tell me about it from its file. Thanks very much davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 8765 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Wednesday, September 23, 2009 - 3:54 pm:    James; Mica generally doesn't get to these fast enough to have the information before a listing expires. However, for this one, the build card is pictured in the listing and shows the following: Top and back body laminates - Bubinga Neck laminates - Maple and Purpleheart Fingerboard - Ebony Headstock Veneers - Bubinga Tuners - Schaller Inlays - Mother of Pearl Scale length - 32" Electronics - PF6B jix Junior Username: jix Post Number: 23 Registered: 1-2009 Posted on Sunday, September 27, 2009 - 11:30 am:    Thanks very much, Dave. Appreciate that. James jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 1695 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, September 28, 2009 - 12:07 am:    That sure is a beauty James. It's quite unusual to see a series bass on sale here in the UK. In the past I have seen signature basses, (albeit, newer), go up on ebay UK for around that price. If I hadn't already bought an Alembic this year I'd be seriously considering fighting my conscience about bidding on that one. All the best if you decide to bid on it. Jazzyvee jix Junior Username: jix Post Number: 24 Registered: 1-2009 Posted on Tuesday, September 29, 2009 - 7:15 am:    Thanks guys. I agree it's an absolute beauty. Sadly I just couldn't justify it in the end (or was reminded that I couldn't really!). Like you, Jazzyvee, I bought myself a lovely SC Sig at the start of the year so I think my family would have me committed if I bought another so soon. Was seriously tempted, though. Looks like no-one else could afford to go to that level as it had no bids again - guess I'll see if he puts it back on at a lower price..... which could be a bad thing for my bank balance!! Thanks again James mica Moderator Username: mica Post Number: 6570 Registered: 6-2000 Posted on Friday, January 15, 2010 - 5:37 pm:    The other details from the build card is: birthday: September 17, 1981.
