1948 Epiphone B-4 SOLD

Hello All,

This past fall we finished a 10 month restoration of an Epiphone B-4 for Matt Malley bass guitarist for the Counting Crows. The bass was in disrepair and he chose us to complete the restoration. He has tried the upright bass and decided it isn’t for him (too big, too physical) so the bass is now for sale.

I have no interest in being the middle (wo)man so if you are interested you should contact Matt directly (SUPER nice guy) and work with him on the details. The bass is located in Moorpark, California. I can say this bass is in great playable condition. Here is a full photobucket slide show of the entire transformation.

Matt is asking $3000 for the bass which is a 1948-1949 Epiphone Blonde B-4.

Contact: Matt Malley mattmalley@mac.com

Hoping someone out there loves this bass and gives it a new home.
