Does anyone have information about this brand and this bass? Is it a fair price? Looks quite interesting.

cliftonbasses.co.uk should tell you a lot....if not PM me?

My thought on that bass are: solid zebrawood body looks lovely but may weigh a fair bit. Mo generally likes to keep his basses light, but I'd expect that to be a good solid piece of timber. The combination of headless and 36" scale takes a bit of getting used to, but really helps the B string...its a trade of sound against left hand stretch at the lower end (past the first five frets you really don't notice it). Neck profiles can vary, (depends what the original customer wanted) but are easy to modify one way (i.e. shave down) as the oil finish is pretty simple to re-apply.
