What a nice looking couple!

Some people live their whole life and never find their true love. It's always nice to see someone find theirs! It's written on your face!

Great pics! ;)

PS.....Have you told your wife yet? Haha :D

Mark started with earlier Series IIs, the ones with the first generation GMT pick-ups. The ones with the exposed poles.

Hi Hans, welcome to this great forum and congrats for your nice old Series II!

Referring to your Series II #288: I have just bought #142 and it should date back to the end of 1984 so I guess your #288 should be from 1986. As Danny suggested you may contact Dawn at Status and ask her if she has some more details of your bass.

Ciao!
