'98 Cirrus - Walnut/Bubinga + Ebony/Amboyna Burl

Price Drop - $800 shipped!!

I recently bought this from Fekwood, and while it's an incredible bass, it just isn't my thing. It's everything he describes it as in his post, it looks brand new, the action is incredible, the wood is beautiful, it's dead quiet, and his hand crafted knbs are wonderful!
I thought I'd try it, but I just can't warm up to it, I guess I'm too accustomed to a certain feel, body style & sound.
So it's up for grabs, I'd just like the original price for it, $850 (now $800) shipped!

Here's the original thread:

Sorry it didn't work out for you Gary.
Someone is going to be getting an awesome Cirrus!
Plus, Gary is a great TB'er to work with, you won't be disappointed.

Roy, it's an incredible bass, everything you described it as and more! But just didn't click for me, we all have our idiosyncrocies concerning what we're comfortable with.

Wow, I'm looking for one, but I need my other basses to sell. Good luck man. I hope I run into this another day so I can scoop it up.

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the thumb rest is a deal breaker for me. I play with my thumb nudged right in between the pups. If the thumb rest were removed, there would be two holes.

Otherwise, I've stayed up dreaming about this bass some nights !

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my '99 bubinga ! Someone will truly love this bass.

GaryLC · #14 12-28-2010, 11:48 AM

And I rest my thumb right on the neck pup, so the thumb rest was just eye candy to me!

I still dream of owning this bass ! My '99 is nearly identical, except for these sweet knobs !

GaryLC · #18 12-29-2010, 11:34 AM

Hey Mike, you should buy this, switch the knobs with yours, and then turn this around again. You'd have your bass & these knobs, everyone would be happy!

Very true !!!!! Good point. Or I could send you stock Cirrus knobs and $100 for those knobs !

GaryLC · #20 12-29-2010, 11:51 AM

These knobs are like Dorothy's Ruby slippers, they can't be removed from this bass until it changes hands!
