Bump!

Thank you

Up for sale this beautiful and great sounding instrument in mint condition (production year: 2017). Some kind of a prototype of "gently" fanned basses (only 0,5" difference between the low B and the G string). Bridge was produced in a foundry especially for this project. The composition is 20% tin and 80% copper: exactly the same as bell bronze used for bells. Recently the bass was upgraded with illuminating side dots and a see-through ramp (see pics on the bottom).

So nice!

Beautiful... GLWTS. PS: I am sure that those are not single coils but humbuckers.

I managed to get a Standard 55-02 few months ago. Surprised how high quality and versatile instruments these are...

I decided to ask the luthier to do some radical modifiations on the instrument so it will fit me much more. Thanks for the interests! Cheers: Joni

[quote name='lowregisterhead' timestamp='1489650797' post='3258588'] A lovely bass. I did a trade with Joni for the other Boldogh he had listed, and it's a quality instrument. He was also great to deal with - buy/trade with confidence. GLWTS Joni! [/quote] Thank you Dave!

What a nice top! What is under? Ash or alder?

Bump! Offers welcome! Need cash desperately...

[quote name='grapevinebass' timestamp='1489050633' post='3253925'] That's one of the prettiest basses I ever did see. If I was after a 5 string I would grab it. [/quote] Thanks mate

That's very nice. I love when they use maple fretboards (not so often...).

[quote name='funkyfingers' timestamp='1488908101' post='3252853'] And would you be so kind to send me soundsamples to [email protected] thank you [/quote] Hi Rolf, Sure! Will send you all the infos with pics + sound samples this evening.
