Looks like this bass was the poster child for the Series II in 1983! jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 2955 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, June 11, 2012 - 12:46 pm:    Looks like you are right there Neyman. Also that one right in the photo is a rare example of a light wood neck. Probably maple.

Price may be a little steep, but it's a beauty! Check it out. It's at the top of their bass list: http://www.gruhn.com/ hammer Intermediate Member Username: hammer Post Number: 142 Registered: 9-2009 Posted on Tuesday, June 12, 2012 - 3:12 pm:    Checked out the list. I can now see the reason why it's been for sale for some time. Given the company your new bass has kept, it appears you got a great deal on it. Congrats! count Member Username: count Post Number: 63 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 - 1:49 am:    $20.000??????????

I have done some gigs with him playing at nursing homes!
