I have one of these, and it's an absolute go-to fretless for me. Free bump!

It's a rarer color than the plain. Mine is that color - I'm told it adds to the value for collectors. Makes do difference in the playability - still superb. Definitely one of the most ergonomically sound basses I've ever played.

In person it really looks more like a dark green - like dark green tea. Very subtly great looking instrument.
