Oh wow!!!

If i was a newbie with no posts asking £11k for a bass, i would at least introduce myself, state my location and upload some razor sharp high-res images of the instrument.

Hello guys,
so sorry my distraction.
I live in Italy, the fender was purchased in 2009 in Virginia by Mandolin vintage.
For those interested I can send detailed photos.
for the photos, please contact me privately

Absolutely stunning!

And there was me doubtful of ever seeing a YOB bass. I was born in '59. This is stunning.

Hi, I am interested and see these pictures are also on Reveb with a price of $16,000 U.S from Gerlando's in Italy. If my conversion is correct from Euros to U.S. Dollars, you are asking $12,500. Is that correct? Todd
