thanks! I do think it has a tone and volume way beyond it's price bracket, has served me very well - only selling because I fell in love with a really special instrument

fairly recent footage of this bass in action...

I'm selling my bass. Probably a late-19th century Bohemian instrument, formerly block-less and once upon a time a 3 stringer, although it had a block fitted and a new neck sometime before I bought it. Recently serviced and set up by Laurence Dixon, who's been looking after it as long as I've had it. Not the prettiest bass out there, nor the easiest to fly around, but for the price you'd be lucky to find something as loud, punchy and characterful... This has been my main instrument for almost all of my career, it's the instrument on most of the albums I'm on so I can provide studio recordings, videos etc... I can even point you towards recordings of John Hebert and Ernst Glerum borrowing it... £4000 including Realist pickup, spirocore strings, and a good quality new case. The bass is in Hastings.
