When you find the time :-) I would be glad to know the details of my newly aquired Europa.

I am the third owner. I have been in contact with the first owner. He bought it in 2003/2004 from a firm by the name of Fotophono. He says that he got a good price because they had had the bass for a while.

fc_spoiler has pointed out that this bass was presented in the 2000 catalog. Does that mean that the bass was at the factory close up to 2000 ?

Probably not. Back when I used to hire a professional photographer for printed catalogs, it would take several years to accumulate images. The 2000 catalog would have had images from a few years prior.

Just bumping up my reguest. I would be greatfull for information.

Thanks
Jarl

I've made a note in the file that it was in the 2000 catalog. Looks like your email address didn't make it over in our board migration, so you might want to update your profile.

Thank you very much for the info and thanks for the congratulations on our national constitution day.


I will update my profile
