scrumpymike Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Worth the asking price just as an 'objet d'art' - the musicality would be an extra bonus!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Interestingly, this is one of the first two ever made, the other being made for John Giblin. Giblin's bass was being sold through The Gallery almost exactly five years ago. The vendor of this one is quite right - the list price is US$24,000. Selling this at £3500 is actually (ridiculous as it sounds) an absolute bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrumpymike Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Seems a kind of odd thing to sell via Gumtree - that and the price suggests the seller just wants it gone with minimal hassle. Unless, of course, all is not what it appears to be?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzyvee Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 If I could play double bass I would have that without a doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
