This is a brand new(a little over a month ago) used only a few times Shen SB100 3/4 Double bass.....I thought I wanted to learn the instrument but I am concentrating on electric 100%.
This comes with Bass Bag and Shen "Ophelia" carbon fiber bow(German). The bass was set up by renowned Luthier Jeff Bolbach and according to him this is one of the nicer Shens he has ever come across. I paid $2285.....it is as new as the day I took her home...thanks for looking...I can email you more pics if needed!
This is one of the newer updated Shens.
Here are some of the stats:

Size-3/4
String Length- 41 1/4"
Tuning Machines-Suzhou Brass individual machines

A very nice plywood that actually has beautiful tone! Laminate construction provides durability and a nice sound. Includes Inlayed purfling, ebony fittings.
Somewhat Local Sale only!!!I will Deliver to Tri-State Areas!!!!!!

It doesn't look like I will be able to buy the bass after all. Sorry for stringing you along and good luck finding a buyer!
