*SOLD* UK 1940/50s carved blonde

Offers around £3000



My 'best' bass, reluctant sale, but I play it so rarely, and I'm increasingly veering towards vintage ply basses. Posted here earlier this year, then lost courage to sell, but it makes sense, so here goes again.

Bought this from Peter Tyler in Maidenhead 4 years ago.
Punchy, articulate airy sound, light weight and beautiful.
It had a big accident in the past, but all fixed up properly: 1997 restoration in Cape Town SA - details pencilled on the inside by luthier include major damage to lower bout, new f-board, bridge, end-pin and soundpost.

Pictured strung with Innovation Honeys, but supplied with Spiro meds.
Bass location: West London, UK.
