FS: DiPinto Belvedere Standard

I love this bass; but it was a pretty impulsive purchase. Not necessarily a smart financial move. I bought it new in July, and it's seen its fair share of stage time since then.

There is one chip in the finish. Otherwise, just some superficial scratches. Currently strung with D'Addario flats. It'll ship in a Gator gigbag.

$300, shipped in the US.

Weight: 8.6 lbs on bathroom scale.
Tone: Very open low end, but with definition. You can really articulate the notes, and they come out... crisp, yet warm.
Scale: 34"

Sorry for the "list" - I'm heading out of town, so I'm a little rushed in my response.

Bump for a very underrated semi-hollow. My Belvedere Standard is in the rotation with basses that go for 10X more.
These don't come up on the used market very often, and I'm halfway tempted to buy it just because.

Bump.

I'm in the same boat as vroc. This is a VERY underrated bass. I'm tempted to keep it, and am OK with it not selling... I'm just pulling together funds for a new amp.

Argh! I missed one of these on eBay for about $250. Wish I had some funds. Bump for a cool bass.

Pick me! Pick me!

If you get no local (US) buyers, I'll gladly take this off your hands.

I don't think DiPinto's are available in OZ and I love semis/hollow body basses.

Sincerely
