*TRADED* FS/FT Carruthers EUB

This is a great sounding and playing bass, but I think I want to focus on BG and pull out the Kay on the (probably) rare occasion I need a DB.

Information on Carruthers SUB-1 basses is available here:
http://www.carruthersguitars.com/pag...1/sub1main.htm

Some quick pictures (sorry about the flash glare in some):





















This one is an older model with a two band preamp. The fingerboard is also not pau ferro; my best guess is that it is ebony. I've never seen ebony with so much tight flame, however. As far as I can tell, the rest of the specifications are the same. I've seen some posts that the fingerboard of Carruthers basses have a very shallow scoop, but I don't find it any harder to bow than my Kay. The bass has some little dings from use, but nothing serious. It has a great sound with the hollow body.

Sale price is $1000 plus shipping. Trades should be worth at least that much (partial trades are fine). I might be interested in bass guitars (especially five strings), or partial trades involving recording equipment, keyboards/controllers, or other stuff. Try me.

Thanks,
Marshall
