This is a search-engine-friendly text mirror of the TalkBass Forums speedster 02-22-2006, 11:08 AM Approx. 100 yr old Czech 3/4 size bass, carved spruce top, maple slab back and sides, a few repaired cracks, good sound, new Thomastic strings. Best offer, would consider Eminence EUB as partial trade..... flyingmarcel 02-22-2006, 12:10 PM Where are you located? I just found out that my current laminated bass isn't worth repairing, so I'm in the market.... Can you give me a ball park of what you are expecting to get for the instrument? Thanks, fm Rob Hunter 02-22-2006, 12:19 PM Where are you located? Speedster, perhaps you can change your public profile to read something more specific than "Ontario" - it's a darned big province! I'm curious to know the price as well - but I won't consider the bass if I have to drive to Thunder Bay! flyingmarcel 02-22-2006, 01:23 PM Hey Rob, I noticed you are in Toronto - I'm heading down this weekend to potentially do a little bass shopping. I was planning on hitting the Sound Post, possibly Long & McQuade and possibly Heinl. Anywhere else you would recommend I check out. I'm looking for a laminate or hybrid instrument that will be used almost exclusively for jazz... any thoughts? fm speedster 02-22-2006, 01:39 PM Port Elgin Ontario is the location which is 30 minutes from Owen Sound Ontario....... About 2hrs North West of Toronto..... As far as price goes $3000 Canadian home email address: skspeedie@bmts.com let me know guys....... as another fella in London Ontario is planning on making the trip.... flyingmarcel 02-22-2006, 01:47 PM $3k is a bit rich for me right now, but thanks for letting us know. Good luck with the sale. fm Rob Hunter 02-22-2006, 02:46 PM PM'ed both of ya. philly 02-23-2006, 04:48 AM you have pics? speedster 02-24-2006, 06:17 AM I'll try and post some pic's tonight after I get home from work, mangaed to take some last night, just hope they turn out.

Sorry Phil Rowan 03-05-2006, 12:00 PM Oof, I really wish I lived closer to you, or vice versa.... speedster 03-05-2006, 12:18 PM Steve Clark just got himself a wonderful sounding old czech bass with tons of character. Price was a steal but glad to see it going to someone who will appreciate & play it. |
