Advertised this a while ago but withdrew it untill I had some further information on it
Selling my made in Germany double bass(ply). Needs a bit work done to it but according to Steve Martin(guy I know who does repairs/restores) it could be worth quite a bit more if al fixed up. I've got plenty of photos I can email you.
Currently in playable condition, but as far as I know needs a fair bit work doing to it. There's a crack seperating the headstock/neck, has been like this since I bought it over 6 years ago and hasn't budged! bass bar is starting to come away and would need a good setup.

[left]Dont know a great deal about the bass to be honest. bought it about 6 years back now from the guy who played in a local Jazz band. As far as I know its a German factory bass (pre WW2) its full scale and the strings are flats that apparently cost him over £120 to buy.
There is a crack between the neck and the headstock that was already there when I bought it. the guy said it had been that way for years while he had it and hasn't effected the playability at all so didnt bother getting it fixed.[/left]
[left][color=#000000]As far as I can tell its a solid wood body, but as I said previousley I dont really know a great deal about DB. Prices I've beeen quoted for it vary between 600 - 900 so I'll aim for somwhere in the middle for the asking price of £700.
I may very well be way off with my estimation, as I said I dont know a great deal about DB and am just going off what I've been told.[/color][/left]
[left][color=#000000]Your more than welcome to come round have a play and see it for yourself. Just drop me a PM on here or you can email me at [email="[email protected]"][email protected][/email][/color][/left]
Thanks for looking,

Dont suppose you'd consider a trade for an Ampeg SVT2 Premier numbered 6 of 250?

Sorry mate, im saving up for a new camera so not interested in trades!
Cheers though
Belta amp, totally bomb proof and a valve sound to die for!! only selling as I use a VBA400 and am currently happy with my set up.
Mid dial has a mod, pulling the pot out gives a mid boost and makes the amp sound a lot more aggressive, NICE!
