I've got a great Bee bass. Queen model, neck through, 6 string that I'd be willing to trade with you. 2006 build, excellent condition. I've attached a pic and some audio. I can send more it you're interested. Here are the specs.
-- Butternut body -- from the walnut family.
-- Bubinga top and headstock
-- maple neck with rosewood fingerboard (acrylic) makes it tough
and has a snappier sound. It's a gorgeous piece of thick
rosewood that's been impregnated with acrylic.
--- 34" scale neck with reinforced graphite
-- Hipshot bridge and tuners
-- Delano SBC5 HE/S, soapbar pickups
-- Bee preamp
-- 3 way midrange selector, toggle switch
-- Dual, truss rod adjustor
-- 24 fret, 2 octave neck
On the audio, I've rolled off a lot of treble and midrange. The bass gets a lot brighter if you want it to.
Let me know if you're interested. :-)

I'm a bit confused with the dot markers on the fingerboard. Some pics show no dots and one pic has the dots.
Did you add the dots later to half the fingerboard??

Hey,
Hope you're still considering the trade for my Bee 6 string, neck through.
My Bee has the addition of the 3 way toggle, mid-range switch which is not standard on these basses. I paid more.
In addition, the neck is multi-ply (many layers of wood) with decorative streamers and it has a zero fret, things I did not previously list.
I've known people years ago to pay over $3,600 for this model bass with the upgrades. This is a pristine bass and is well worth the trade.
PM Shovelbone and ask him about the Bee bass. He has personally played it and would buy it instantly if he had the cash.
I'm not in a huge rush but would hate to lose this trade with you so please consider.
P.S. You and I play through the same amp. Love my GK MB Fusion!! Sounds killer with the Bee bass.
talk soon
Charley

Hey,
I'm trippin' out a bit here. The pics show a right handed bass but the video shows a left handed bass.
Did the video image flip around? Is this a RT or LT handed instrument originally?
thanks

Looks like the video was filmed in the mirror. All the pics show a right-handed instrument, with the log correct (so not flipped). No need to trip out.
