That flame Koa is absolutely gorgeous. Is that an LED switch behind the bass/ treble sweep?

You are both absolutely correct...there is a tiny bit of flame in the maple neck lams, it's a mahogany core with maple pins, and the switch is a LED switch. I just got back to S.F. after using it for the 1st time on stage in New York and DC...I'm completely blown away...it's everything I'd hoped for and more! 57basstra Senior Member Username: 57basstra Post Number: 984 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 8:07 am:    nice bass and nice pics sonicus Member Username: sonicus Post Number: 91 Registered: 5-2009 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 9:33 am:    Super! chalie_holmes Member Username: chalie_holmes Post Number: 69 Registered: 3-2009 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 9:41 am:    Fine instrument you got there kid! funkyjazzjunky Senior Member Username: funkyjazzjunky Post Number: 438 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 2:20 pm:    I love that Koa precarius Advanced Member Username: precarius Post Number: 291 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 3:25 pm:    That looks quilted. Beautiful. jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 1532 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Monday, June 08, 2009 - 3:29 pm:    The Europa's are fantastic live instruments, very straightforward and easy controls to use and sound great. Nice bass you have there. Did you carry the bass onboard as hand luggage or did you have to put it in the hold?
