Question Help identifying this EUB. Please!

Hi.

There's someone trying to sell me this EUB but I (nor does he) have any idea what brand this bass is... He only knows that it is a Baby Bass!
He's asking me to make him an offer!
Does anyone have a clue?

Thanks.
Best Regards,

I think there are a couple of owners around here. Here's a previous thread:

Does anybody recognize my EUB?!

I think there was another one too.

These showed up on UK ebay a little while ago for around £500. Some optimist has got one listed on US ebay at the moment for $3,599.99!

Made in Korea, or possibly China. Sold under a number of names, often by discount mail order sellers, sort of like the Palatino.

Artisan, Yamada, B Bass, Carrisch, Arrow, Harley-Benton are a few of the names I´ve seen on this EUB.

Thank you both very much for your replies.

I'll try to arrange a way of trying it!
Do you have any idea how much should I offer?

Thanks once again.
Kind Regards,
Nuno.

HMMMMM............

That bass sells for $3500 on Ebay which is way over priced. It has some of same cheaper componenets you find in Palatino VE500's. I wouldn't go much more than $6 to 800 myself and that would depend on the set up and the sound. Good luck.
