I ordered this in the Fall of 2008 and received it in January of 2009. Unfortunately it has seen less than 50 hours of playing time...all in my home studio. As much as I'd like to, I just don't play fretless much (or well) and so having an instrument of this caliber not getting played a TON is a real waste.
$2,000 OBO and I will include free FedEx Ground Shipping to the Lower 48. Not trades please!
The bass is spec'd as follows:
Alder Body, Exhibition Grade Koa Top
Quarter-sawn Macassar Ebony FB (lined fretless)
Bound / Matching Headstock
Straplocks
Brushed Aluminum Hardware
Deluxe Hardshell Case
Current List is $3,850.
You can check the bass out in Post # 802 here...
Show us the Rob Allen basses!
The bass is in PERFECT condition minus one very small (not visible from more than 6 inches away) dent in the top caused by a good friend of mine enthusiastically digging in when his thumb nail was a bit long one night when we were jamming together after dinner). He really loves this bass. His name is Christian McBride. If he digs it, and you are looking for about as good an upright sound out of an electric as you can get, this bass will NOT disappoint.
