Tobias Neck Thru 4 American Black Walnut Basic FS/FT

Sign in to disble this ad
2005 Tobias Basic neck through. Satin finish (not oil) American Black Walnut body wings, flamed maple/purple heart 5 piece neck, color matched Pau Ferro fretboard. I bought it brand new and put it away, sold it and just got it back. It is an unreal instrument on all levels. Someone will be thrilled with this bass. This bass is in pristine condition It comes with original brown Tobias high quality plush case, paperwork and wrenches. If it were not for my Ken Smith neck thru's this would not be for sale.
SOLD $1535, if Pay Pal, then echeck.
Comparable value pristine trade offers welcome + or- $.

I don't see a price. The formatting of the thread is funky and I am looking at it on a small screen. Please advise if I missed it. Also, the red text is hard to read on the default blue background of the forum.

I bought this bass and played it for over a year then traded it back. I still feel good about both of those deals.

Amen. This is an excellent instrument and an excellent price. One very cool feature is the bridge can adjust the string spacing. The neck profile (thin on the treble side and deeper to the bass side) makes it very smooth playing compared to many jazz basses. The preamp has multiple mid-range settings for a variety of tones. It's a very versatile instrument and it's great to look at, too.

Final price drop to $1535.
If someone isn't smart enough to buy it at this price, I'm smart enough to keep it.
