Heading to Korea and leaving my upright behind...

I'd like to rent it out... anyone know a good service? It'd be a good instrument for a student, beginner or university. Good instrument for jamming out on but it's no orchestral bass. It's in NYC as of now.

Standard gypsy bass shipped in pieces from Germany and assembled in Bethesda, Maryland by what used to be House of Weaver. Also, any suggestions on rates would be appreciated. I just want to keep this thing played while I'm away so that when I come back home it sounds like a bass and not a scratch-box Thanks in advance!

If you want to rent it out you might very well return to a sracth box. In that it would be a box full of scratches......dents,chips,nicks.....

True, that's something I've been worrying about. That's kind of why I'd like to rent it through a service, if there is such a thing. I may just have to leave it with a bassist friend to play every so often I suppose...

I did so want to make a buck or two
