Default '82 G-3

I just thought I would pop in and show you guy's my newest bass. I am the guy that has the ebony Ripper with bmx stickers on the pickguard. It's been awhile since I've posted that one. I found this within driving distance from me. I'm not real hot on the coated strings, so those will have to go. I don't post much, but I check in here all the time. Keep the great info coming!!

Hey,

I know you posted this a few months ago but i havn't checked in for awhile.

Only replying because i have one very simular.I purchased mine thru E-Bay US & i live in Australia. A fair bit of a hassle at the time but all now forgotten & well worth it

What is the number stamped on it? Mine is 82842005
I have learnt that it was made on the 11-10-1982 the 5th on that production run for the day.
Do you know the colour is known as Candy Apple Red?
Enjoy...
