Anyway, do we have an ETA as far as availability? I hollered at Andy Irvine about them but he's a very busy man these days. http://www.notreble.com/buzz/2013/01...ass-star-bass/

Don't worry. Someone will be back manning these threads as soon as the hectic NAMM schedule eases off.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Apr 2010 Location: Youngstown, OH | | | It's a rosewood FB with nickelsilver frets coming from China? The ones from Korea from 2012 and before are wenge/brass and 34" scale 4-string. I have a 4 string from June 2012 ProSeries Korea and it is a really nice instrument. If it matters whether you want wenge over rosewood you can probably find one of the "older" ones from eBay. I know you said you want a 5 string so scale length won't change, but the FB/fret option is different. Just FYI and I imagine some people will prefer rosewood and nickel medium scale 4 string anyway! Great Great Bass, really liking it so far. |

| | Registered User Warwick & Framus Social Media | | | | | The Rockbass Star Bass was a hit at NAMM 2013! They should be available in April, and we feel they represent an incredible value, with superb quality! Please let me know if you've got any questions. Thanks! |
