Placing for sale this original 1960s Ampeg Baby Bass in outstanding/mint condition, bearing the legacy of having been once owned and operated by one of the greatest bass players, Carlitos del Puerto. This electric double bass exemplifies the Golden Era, which has been so influential to Latin music genres, yet it is versatile enough to adapt easily into many styles. This is an excellent instrument with very low action and an extremely thin (and gorgeous looking!!) neck, which makes playing very easy and comfortable, thus suiting both seasoned players and those who are a bit newer to the double bass. Classic design and superior build quality have kept it in mint condition as possible; it really is a testament to how durable the instrument is and just how well it has been cared for over the years. This is not just an instrument, but a piece of musical heritage — it's an Ampeg Baby Bass that combines historical significance with the most amazing playability anywhere. It has an ultra-cool matching bag, great in appearance, yet offering complete protection when traveling or in storage. It's a rare opportunity to be able to have a piece of music history touched by one of the legendary musicians. Whether you are a collector, professional musician, or a player who appreciates rich tones and an electric double bass with history behind its shoulders, an Ampeg Baby Bass offers a peculiar blend of quality, history, and performance. Do not miss out on this opportunity to add this incredible instrument to your collection. Price: €6.500 Location: Mallorca, Spain

I’m offering this stunning and all-original Ken Smith BT5 Elite from 1990. This bass not only looks incredible with its Quilted Maple top and back, but it also sounds phenomenal. Specifications: • Body: 5-piece construction (Quilted Maple top and back, Mahogany core) • Neck: 5-piece Neck-through construction, 34” scale • Fingerboard: Ebony, 24 frets • String Spacing: 18mm at the bridge • Year: 1990 • Weight: 4380g • Case: Original Ken Smith Teardrop Case included This bass hails from the earlier Smith era, known for its superb low action and exceptional playability. The frets are in excellent condition, and the neck is flawless. The gold hardware still shines beautifully, with only minor fading on the edges, which is expected from a bass of this vintage. There are a few minor signs of playwear, but nothing significant. The bass comes with the original paperwork and even the original Ken Smith strings (currently strung with DR strings). Price: €7200 €6600 Location: Mallorca, Spain

Edit: Open for a trade with a 5 string Fodera with a 34" scale length. Differences can be adjusted, if needed. Hey guys! Placing for sale the growliest and one of the most beautiful FODERA basses I've ever played. It's an Imperial 6 Elite, built in 2010. + Buckeye Burl Top + Walnut body with Maple Toneblock + Ebony Fingerboard + Maple Neck + Ebony Pickup Covers + 34" Scale + 19mm Spacing at the Bridge + Extended Low B + Fodera/SD Pickups + Fodera Preamp in Imperial/Emperor Layout It has been played, personally this is why I think it sounds so great. In single coils position it sounds as the growliest jazz bass I've ever heard. Even in passive mode. It has some small dings, which does not affect the playability neither the sound of the instrument. Original Hardshell Case and candies included. Open for a trade with a 5 string Fodera. Differences can be adjusted, if needed. Price €9.000. Based in Mallorca, Spain. International shipping available.
