Where are you located?

I just found out that my current laminated bass isn't worth repairing, so I'm in the market....

Can you give me a ball park of what you are expecting to get for the instrument?

Thanks,

fm

Speedster, perhaps you can change your public profile to read something more specific than "Ontario" - it's a darned big province!

I'm curious to know the price as well - but I won't consider the bass if I have to drive to Thunder Bay!

Hey Rob,

I noticed you are in Toronto - I'm heading down this weekend to potentially do a little bass shopping. I was planning on hitting the Sound Post, possibly Long & McQuade and possibly Heinl. Anywhere else you would recommend I check out. I'm looking for a laminate or hybrid instrument that will be used almost exclusively for jazz...

any thoughts?

Steve Clark just got himself a wonderful sounding old czech bass with tons of character.

Price was a steal but glad to see it going to someone who will appreciate & play it.
