gjones Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) Unfortunately my carpal tunnel makes playing DB impossible at the moment. So I'm putting my Gewa double bass up for sale. I don't know much about the brand, other than they are German, but notice that Thomann the German online music shop sells bridges, bows and bags made by them. The website is pretty impressive and although the bass doesn't give a place of manufacture I'm assuming it wasn't Germany (Some information on the internet says that Gewa violins, cellos etc were made in Romania around about 2004 when this bass was made). I paid £500 for it in 2011 so I'm looking for £400 which I think is a fair price. I'm based in Edinburgh so it would have to be picked up from me. Or I could deliver as long as it's within a reasonable distance. This is the Gewa website [url="http://www.gewamusic.com/uk/produkte/streichinstrumente/kontrabasse.html?manufacturer=3"]http://www.gewamusic...?manufacturer=3[/url] [attachment=112269:front1.jpg] [attachment=112270:side.jpg] [attachment=112271:label.jpg] Edited July 15, 2012 by gjones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gjones Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm no expert but I think it's ply. Sounds good though and in good condition. I got it secondhand about a year ago from somebody trying to sell it for £800. I bought it for £500. It's not been out of the house since.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I'm primarily looking for cash but may be interested in trades depending on what you are offering.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Gareth[/font][/color] Edited July 10, 2012 by gjones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
