As much as I love this bass, bills need to be paid and I have to let it go. I only bought it off of a fellow basschatter last year after having searched one forever.

I owned this beautiful Vigier before selling onto @Abjatar Yet another of life's bass regrets!

 

These early Arpege basses come up so rarely for obvious reasons, they are that good!

 

Somebody will be very happy here😁

Thank you!

The pickup was already changed, when I got it. 

But you could probably order one directly from Benedetti. Although the seem to have changed their website. Maybe just drop them an email.

 

Alternatively, someone in Germany is currently selling one on our classifieds.
