Message to Tak Hosono

Dear Sir,

I met Jun hosokawa last year, we had a meeting at the NAMM Show and have been in contact before Christmas to meet again at this years namm to discuss things. He also mentioned to meet with the Ibanez People at your Location North Hollywood.

I have emailed Jun after christmas to check a date and time to meet up when we comes over from Japan but have not heard from him. Do you know if he is ok ? He normally responds right away.

May I ask for you assistance in contacting him, and are you seeing him at NAMM

Many thanks.
Steve Boyce

PLEASE MR HOSONO, im doing research on my Master Bass MAB4QM. Im curious of how many were made and if you made mine. Is it california made or japan. It has the thru the body neck. It has a serial number of MB91013. Does that mean it was the thirteenth one made? Can you give me an estimated value today for this bass? Any info on this bass would be great. Thank you, Traci

1991, 13th made.

Here's a B5QM, 19th made
