It's a beautiful bass but we need a bit more to make a decision:

*Scale
*Nut Spacing
*Preamp/Electronics/Hardware
*Woods
*Case/Shipping CONUS
*Pretty much everything

Wild tailpiece and bridge. Really enjoyed seeing that.

Bring it to a Kai Eckhardt gig and let him check it out. Looks like something he might like.
