You all know this bass, so it needs very little introduction.

Fantastic condition F Bass Alain Caron 5 string fretless bass, with beautiful satin violin finish, ebony fingerboard (great condition), mag/piezo pickups, three band preamp with passive tone adjust. This bass is phenomenal. Has a tiny 3mm mark on the edge of the headstock, difficult to see (was sold to me as like new) but there. These basses, like all F's, have recently had a price hike...

Asking $4200 shipped to ConUSA, will ship w/F Bass gig bag.

Will consider a few trades, but only if really interesting, such as Fodera / Sukops.

more pics added. The headstock 3 mm mark is on the edge, just above the E string tuner.

These are absolutely incredible basses. I had one for a short while, and the tone is not to be matched. I really wish I had the time to really develop the feel for fretless :(

Anyone picking this one up will not be disappointed.
