Greetings TB'ers...
Got a few really nice basses for sale. Raising cash for a down payment on a house (but am definitely up for trades too, so let me know what you got).
I'll be listing the specifics of all the basses as I find the time to jot them down, but I've set up the bass-ics
right here - http://www.asteriskband.com/evan/bass/Basses.html
Check out this ultra-rare Ken Bebensee (I don't think I've EVER seen one of these for sale anywhere) custom 4 string. A fine offering from master luthier Ken Bebensee. Say what you will about Ken's business history, but there is no denying his mastering of the art of luthiery. There is a reason that folks wait 10 years for a bass from this man. This bass, an example in simplicity and elegance from the normally wild and complex Bebensee, offers one of Ken's signature body designs, custom wooden knobs, wooden battery compartment and forward thinking electronics. In addition to the standard 1/4" out, this bass is equipped with the 13 pin MIDI out (via RMC piezo saddles mounted in the bridge) which allows you to control your MIDI devices and modules with your bass!!! A built in ramp between the neck and the pickups to encourace smooth and even tone. The bass is currently strung with flats and it feels like a dream.
