Azola Mini Baby Bass FS/FT Feeler

Sign in to disble this ad
Feeler cause I'm far from certain I want to lose this. But I'm thinking about making some huge changes to my musical direction (and life), one of which upright will become far less of a necessity. I love the hell out of this bass, and it's been a total joy to play and hear.

I am the second owner. I bought this directly from Azola about a year ago who had just got it from the first owner. They updated the preamp, certified the condition, and sold it to me.

One of a kind. There was a similar model up maybe about half a year ago, with some differences. Some dings and scratches.

I feel stupid and guilty even thinking about selling it, and with that I'll introduce the feeler price:

$3500

For trades I'm looking for something of the Fodera (not NYC), Jerzy Drozd, STR, Alleva Coppola, Sadowsky NYC variety (+/- cash). Studio monitors, mixers, other recording equip also possibilities. Also a lesser-value Azola would be possible

* Custom Azola Mini Baby Bass (now a "retired" model)
* Latin pickup (magnetic diaphragm like 1960s Ampeg)
+ bridge wing-mounted dual-element piezo pickup system
* Optional sunburst satin finish
* Foam filled Ash body
* with optional figured Maple top
* Maple tilt-adjust neck
* Loop headstock
* Optional Ebony fingerboard
* 41.5" scale length
* Optional position markers
* Optional Thomastik Spirocore strings
(3/4 Weich)
* Black hardware
* Adjustable bout & endpin
* Gig bag
* Made by Steve Azola at Rancho Bajo, CA in 2000

I have an Azola Scarab Lightning BugBass II, and it's just great. Steve has stopped making basses, which might help with value over the longer term. Anyway, for those not familiar with Azola EUBs, they are very well made and can sound pretty close to the real thing. The scale is like that of a double bass, which makes playing easy for those who are comfortable with an upright. Best of luck with the sale.

OK, I'm more on the side of selling the bass now. Sorry that the pictures disappeared, the server that was hosting them disappeared on me. I'll have some up soon.
