I'm putting my Takamine TB10 bass up for sale only.
The TB10 is an acoustic/electric hybrid with a piezo. It has a fretless unlined ebony neck, spruce and maple body with F holes, a preamp (with Cool Tube technology), as well as a built-in tuner.
Here's Takamine's web page:

It can be played standing up or sitting down. Its neck radius is very much like an upright. You can't bow with it - the radius doesn't allow (I tried, though). It sounds great. I just never totally warmed up to it. I think I gigged with it all of three times since I've owned it. It's collecting proverbial dust in the case. I recently changed strings to the Rotosound RS77LEs in the hopes I'd like it better, but I don't. Such is life. I want to see this go to a good home.
Here's a pic the Atlanta Bass Gallery took of me when I bought it:
It will be sold or traded with its original hardshell case.
EDIT: Here's a link to more pics of the bass:
http://www.allanhirt.com/takamine.html Sell Price: $1750 US dollars plus $60 shipping in the USA. The last one which sold here (
FS: Takamine TB10 Hybrid Acoustic Bass Guitar) was about $2000, and I'm cheaper than that was listed for. I'm not desperate for cash, and this isn't a fire sale. Just selling something I'm not using so it will be used; a bass shouldn't sit dormant.
I will sell internationally, so inquire. The dimensions of the bass + case are too big to ship via the USPS - it would have to go UPS or FedEx. You would be responsible for any duties/tax/VAT that your country would impose.
Payment Terms: PayPal preferred - the personal option. have 100% positive feedback here, on eBay, and on head-fi, so I take selling seriously and never misrepresent an item.
I would consider a money order if it was a US Postal one or an international money order drawn in US dollars, but that will take time and delay the transaction.
As soon as I get payment, I will confirm your address and get it out in a day or two. I always e-mail tracking numbers so you can see its progress.
If you're local to the Boston area, I'd take cash as well, and we can arrange to meet as well.
Trades: I found what I was looking for, so this is for sale only. Please do not PM or ask for a trade as I'm not in the market for anything. I've got enough amps and basses!
