Still for sale

This bass is still for sale: Now asking $9000:

German Gamba Shaped Bass circa 1900
Round back, adjustable bridge, easy to get around, I used the bass the past 11 years and it got me through undergrad and graduate school. It was last serviced by Mike Shank of Shank strings and you are welcome to contact him as a reference on the instrument.

It was purchased from Kolsteins shop in 1996 and theres a label on the inside stating that the Kolstein's restored the bass in 1984.

PM me if you would like pictures or video.
