*SOLD* FS/FT: Eberle/Musima + extras in central KY - REDUCED!!!

MrSunshine · #1 06-08-2008, 09:35 AM

This Musima, made in Germany, Eberle laminated Bass was purchased from 'Ideal Music' in NYC last fall. It comes with all ebony fittings, a spruce top and maple sides and back. It was new old stock (manufactured in mid-80s). The bass is in excellent condition. No fingerboard wear. No nicks or scratches. Never gigged. It is currently strung with a new set of Helicore Hybrid strings.

Included is:
a. Quality vinyl Upright-Bass bag ($139.00)
b. Set of Labella 1006 Supernil Nylon Wound Double Bass Strings ($72.00 at Elderly.com)
c. K&M Upright Bass Stand ($82.00 at FQMS.com).

I'll also include Mark Schatz's Beginning AND Intermediate 'Bluegrass Bass' on (2) VHS tapes.

In all over $300 of extras!!! The current Ideal Music price for the Eberle laminated bass is $950 plus shipping which is approximately $175 to $200 or more depending on what part of the country you live in. I really need to sell this one so I've reduced the price to $875 including all of the extras. It is ready to play. No set-up required. No extras to buy.

Due to the size and weight issues, I would rather not ship...I would be willing to meet someone within a reasonable distance (I'm located in central Kentucky about 1 hour south of Louisville - 1 hour north of Bowling Green)

I would consider partial trade for a decent electric bass guitar and cash...Let me know what you have and maybe we can work a deal! Thanks

Here's a couple more...

...and a couple of the bag.

...would anyone like to make an offer before I list this on eBay? ...nobody's got an electric to work a trade on?

...If no sell she goes on the 'bay this weekend. Thx

I'm definitely interested in your bass at such a good price, the main problem is that I live in central NJ... I don't know how far your definition of a reasonable distance is, but I would be willing to meet somewhere in between. Another possible solution would be that I'm driving out to Evansville, Indiana with some friends at the end of July. I don't know if you want to wait that long to sell it but if you still have it by then I'd love to make a detour and come try it out. Let me know what you think. If not I'll keep my eye on the e-bay listing while I keep looking.

...the closest I'll be to you is Cleveland, OH...that's probably more than you want to drive. I would be willing to wait on eBay till you get to Evansville if you're pretty sure you'll be here and you are definitely interested? I can surely wait another month! Let me know if this sounds good...

Will you be traveling across I-64 thru the Louisville area?

Thanks, Chuck

I'm definitely going to be coming out, I'm not sure how we're getting there though. Last time we took I-80 a long way but then I'm not sure exactly what we did when we turned south. I'm currently looking at a few offers a little closer to home but I'd be happy to come take a look if nothing works out. I know that's not very definite so if you don't want to wait I understand, but if I'm still in the market and you still have the bass on you I can definitely come check it out.

...you probably came thru Louisville somewhere along the trip and that's not far from my location...I'm gonna hold off on the eBay for awhile 'cause the bass is actually starting to get some interest so we'll stay in touch and you can take a look in July...Thx, Chuck
