This bass was purchased new by me from the Kolstein shop in January of 2007.

The bass is currently setup with Kolstein Heritage strings but I also have a set of Spirocores I've swapped on and off the bass and also Eudoxa E/A Oliv D/G. If either of these other sets of strings are of interest we can talk about adding it into the deal. Includes a Kolstein deluxe padded bag. Local pick up only.

Info from the Kolstein website:
Highly seasoned handcarved spruce top, highly flamed maple veneered laminated back and ribs. It is a bass of 3/4 size with Busetto corners. The model B150 bass is set up with all the hallmarks of the Kolstein shop including the Kolstein Adjustable Bass Bridge with ebony adjusters, full Kolstein dressing of the high quality ebony fingerboard, tonal adjustment, a Kolstein Fendt brass collar endpin with convertible carbide point-crutch tip, Kolstein Heritage bass strings, and a Kolstein deluxe padded bass bag.


Local sales only, any interested parties are welcome to see and play the bass in person before buying.

I will follow up with pictures over the weekend.

Asking $2500.00

photos as promised:

Yes Spiro mediums, the bass has a wonderful growl to it with those strings. They wouldn't be my first choice if I was an orchestral player on this bass.

thanks for cleaning up the photo posts..

Dimensions?

Do you have the dimensions? Specifically top width of the upper bout.

Thanks, Geoff

I do not have that. I can take any measurements you'd like when I get home today. Send me a PM with any and all details you'd like. Along with your location, I assume with your inquiry that you are local? I'd be happy to arrange a time for you to audition the bass.

Pete

Seems to be 19 1/2 at it's widest point.

I am planning on bringing it to Kolstein's to put up on consignment. Feel free to hit me with some trade offers in the next few days before I do so.

Mostly interested in a 5 string electric bass or a high end mic preamp.

Pete
