Looking for an Upton bass close to nashville to demo

The title says it all, I am looking to buy a new bass and many sing the praises of uptons. I would really love to play one before ordering and was hoping someone here in nashville would let me demo theirs. Any takers?

I've got a standard ply and my buddy has a deluxe hybrid. We are in Johnson City. Not exactly close but available if you're ever near town.

Any Ohioans with an Upton carved or hybrid?

Ya know, I was actually in Johnson city last month! If I get out there again I'll give y'all a buzz

Anyone in Texas have one to try?

Their basses speak for themselves. My buddy's deluxe hybrid is the one pictured on their web site now. I have serious hybrid-envy.

Hey guys, UPTON BASS ALL THE WAY!! I am a proud owner of the Gary Karr Deluxe Upton Bass!! I've had it since it's birthday, December 4th, and to this day, I still cannot believe that I am the owner of such a FANTASTIC double bass!! (:

The enthusiasm for Upton is fairly contagious. Now I've given into it. Resistance is futile!
