basmagnus Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I have a fretless Rob Allen MB-2. The quality of Mr Allen's instruments is top notch! I am looking for a Solid 4 and mainly in the model with 2 pickups. Yet this is very interesting too! Will think about it! Thanks for all the info and great music you provided! All the best of luck with the sale! Greetings from Sweden! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote][/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Mmm... I didn't read carefully the previous bassdirect link. [/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]It provides the option for the extra single coil. But the official Rob Allen's website didn't mention this option. [/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]And Rob himself, answering to my question about purchasing, wrote to me: "(...)Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard. This is the only option offered on this bass. "[/font][/size] [size=4][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]I think it was a specific customization for a client, and I don't know how many models with 2 pick up there are in the world!
