Thumbs up NEW TOBIAS GROWLER 5 STRING / FREE SHIPPING / GREAT DEAL!!!!

Sign in to disble this ad
I bought this Tobias Growler 5 String new from a music store. It was "Old Stock", but still new.............I got a decent deal on it (see price in pics), but now I am offering it even less than I paid! This bass is exactly how I got it, I have not played it except to try it out. I have a large collection, and if something does not get used, it must go (eventually). I just really do not have the need for another 5 string right now...............Although, it does seem like a wonderful bass, and is very light!

This bass has the original strings and set up, just as it came from Gibson. I never changed a thing..............The only wear came from it being on display in the music store. Apparently, customers tried it out with coat zippers and belt buckles. It has light scratches on the back, but they are impossible to photograph with the satin natural finish. There are also two small lines on the back from a belt buckle. Many people may not even really notice this, but I don't want to mislead anyone, I like positive "feedback"! This bass is still new, it just had some use while on display..............That's why I originally got a deal on it! Now, I'm asking even less, and shipping is included!

OHSC with all "case candy" and paperwork is included...........This also includes the allen wrenches, and Dunlop strap locks for a guitar strap. See the small plastic bag in photos!

These basses have a MAP "Street" price of $1,599.00, and are getting harder to find because of production cuts. Now you can still get a basically new bass, for about half price!!!!

First USPS Money Order for $899.00 gets it shipped in the lower 48 states for free!!!!

Man if you're a Music Man kind've person but want more tonal options and a more exotic looking instrument, you've got to give a Growler a try. I came so close to buying one many times, but I'm just a traditional body style look kind've guy. These basses are sweeeet for the money, especially what's being charged here. Great slap basses. Best of luck with the sale and thanks for the great pics Laredo!

Exclamation These are getting harder to come by new................

...................The major on-line stores list them as "discontinued"! I did find a couple of links on-line though. Makes this a great deal!

Exclamation Sheeesh................

Someone pointed out to me that Gibson/Tobias only has the Growler 5 as a limited edition bass right now. Man, did they ever increase the price too! Makes this one an even better deal!
