Any way to see the old website listings for discontinued basses?

Trying to figure out some stuff on the Sabre classic specifications, particularly whether or not it was a single piece maple neck or a glued on fretboard! No skunk stripe so and it appears glued so I was gonna assume glued!

I'm pretty sure they didn't have a skunk stripe.

I found this in my files which may be of some help:
