I am the 2nd owner of this 1989 All Original Tobias Classic 5 PRE-GIBSON made when Mike'and his talented group made them one-at a time!!!!
Serial number 881 reveals figured Birdseye maple top,Walnut back,Birdseye maple neck and rare Birdseye maple control cavity cover.
Its very clean with slight wear and a small ding on the side of the headstock,again nothing major.The bridge is fading which is normal for a bass of this age.Come with flight case. 2999 plus actual shipping,,NO TRADES!!
Take a look,,

Would hate to think how much it would cost to ship it and the flight case to Sydney, probably half the cost of the bass...
Cheers,
