So I have this beat-up old DB which I know nothing about...

[T.O.Bass]

A couple of years ago, I came by a beat-up old DB which I bought (for about $700) on a whim. Yeah, I'm an impulse buyer. It's fun, but I never really got into it (I like my electric basses) so I want to sell the thing.

But I have NO idea how old it is, who the maker is, etc... All I know is it's got huge volume and killer tone for the $700 I paid for it. But how do I begin to identify it? I vaguely remeber it being referred to as a Schoenbach 3/4. Which means nothing. So what do I do? I want to sell it but when people ask me questions I can't answer them.

Is there anyone in Toronto that I could have come take a look at this beast, so they can identify it and place a value on it? I have some pictures but they're low quality, and I wouldn't even know what parts to focus on.

I would take your bass to a luthier and get their opinion on value and/or issues that the bass may have. If you can't do that for some reason, maybe Ken Smith will help you out if you PM him.

Any pictures?

Thanks.

I'll snap some fresh pics tonight, as the ones I have are terrible quality.

Go to Heinl music and bring it in, they will let you know about its worth etc. they are on church st between shutter and dundas on the east side just north of the now lounge.

Do you still have the 3/4 Schoenbach? How much are you selling it if you are selling it still?

thanks,

Fred

Except for the fact that this thread is five months old before it was resurrected. He might not even come to this forum anymore.
