Eric,
There was a previous look-up request here from last year where Mica reported the file AWOL   I'm sure with another request Mica will try to find the file again.  Are you the current owner?  If so I hope that you are enjoying the bass!

Hi Eric,  
 
Here's the details I found out about your bass:
 
 
body: Solid Koa
neck: 3-piece Maple
scale: 32 medium
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: Pearloid ovals
pickups: AXY
controls: Spoiler volume, filter, 2-position Q-switch, 4-position rotary pickup selector switch, mono output
originally made for: Guitar Center, Hollywood, CA
birthday: August 24, 1982 (virgo)
 
The original owner lived in Oregon and registered in 1983.
 
In 1988 a registered owner in California reported buying the bass for $100!  
 
The bass was refretted before it was shipped. Apparently the original fret job did not pass inspection.
