A New Face

Can anyone help me identify this bass? It has Labels from Gabriel Lembock, Baptista Ceruti, a stamp on the back that says G L, a grafted on face, violin corners. What do you think?

Very similar to basses I've seen in Budapest. They've been turning up all over Texas lately I'm pretty sure who's importing them. What is she asking for it?

You in the market?

I had some stuff restored on it, new cheeks on the scroll, tuners, neck block.

I don't think there was any antiquing involved, It may not be too old, but maybe a copy of something else. The labels are replicas, but I don't know what they are replicas of.

I actually picked it up at the Bass Cellar from Andy Stetson.

I may soon be in the market. I like it, but have had her around for 6 years or so, It might be time to slip out the back, go for some cigarettes or something.

Right now I am in the market for a new fingerboard, but I want to evaluate my investment first.

Who's into the hungarians and what is the ballpark on those?
