Sorry for the delay in getting back to you regarding my German bouble Bass---been away.
Sorry no photo's available, as taken photos--the usb lead is currently missing--if it turns up I will let you know. A few details about the bass:

Iv'e owned the bass for approx. 25 years. Set up a few years ago (for jazz) by Roger Dawson of London. At the time a new set of quality tuners fitted. Currently has an 'Acusound' transducer fitted. (I've tried a number of pick-ups/transducers and for me over the years and this gives great results.) Good, solid bass. solid sound. Condition good for it's age. Great F/B to play. North Derbyshire. Reason for sale?--I no longer play D/Bass
