Leon Albert

Has anybody ever heard of this brand? The most I found on Google was a hit on some low end Leon Albert Violins.

I'm thinking you might mean Leon Aubert, which is an entry-level Romanian bass. My first bass was an Aubert and it was OK after I invested a few hundred bucks in a set up and new bridge. I've seen new ones sell for anywhere from $1100 to $1700. Can you do better? Perhaps, especially near the upper end of that price range. But you can also do much worse.
