[john mitchell]

I play a 4 string Dean bass, and I'm trying to identify it. I'm pretty sure it's a Korean model, because the only thing useful about the serial number is the E, and I believe that denotes Korea. E060967. I haven't been able to find another quite like it, there are no markings on the fretboard, and it's not a fretless.I would call the finish a dark zebrawood of sorts. I'll include a pic, soon as I find out how to do that, lol. Thank y'all for any help!

Pix please.
Definitely Korean
'E' designates 'world' factory in Korea.
I'm going to guess it's an Dean Edge model. Maybe an Edge 4Q as the Edge 09 and Edge 1 from that time period tend to be on the plain side.

Oh, and welcome to Talk Bass! I see you joined this past Saturday.

@BassmanM thanks for the plug!

When you go to do a post, there is a button marked "Upload a File". This lets you attach a pic from your computer or phone.

[john mitchell]

They should have been different, I'll try to get the upper shot

 

[john mitchell]

Almost, lol

The padding serves 2 purposes, Due to a bad heart I have to sit and play, and due to cancer (colostomy) I have to space it away from me.
