Curbow 5 string IEP, wenge neck for trade or $1500 sale.

Sign in to disble this ad
So heres a real long shot. I have a beautiful Curbow IEP with a rare wenge neck, flame maple top, mahogany body. Looks-stunning, sound-great, problem is 20mm string spacing which for me is 1mm too big. I would love to trade this for a 19mm Curbow IEP. I have a great stable of instruments so if they don't feel perfect they usually end up going. If no trades come along I would let it go for 1500 shipped.

Well, I really hit my limit on bass buying for a while, so I might as well help you out. If I hadn't just bought another bass, I'd buy this immediately. I think this'll work for everyone else, at least unless shutterfly links expire.

Actually, if a Modulus Q5 is on your want list, perhaps we should talk.

Man, that's a beautiful bass. A Curbow IEP is my dream bass. Hopefully I'll be able to find one in 6-8 months when I'm looking to buy.

I'm happy with the 20mm spacing on my Curbows, and it'd be interesting to have one with a completely different sound than my Rockwood necks. Hmm....

The pug clearly has a "please don't sell the bass" face.

Modulus Q5 offer stands. Otherwise, someone buy this thing so I can stop biting my nails about it and move on with my life.
