Well if all goes according to plan I might have an NBD coming up.

Although there's nothing really all that new about the Aria pro 2 TSB-400 I just placed a bid on.

I love Matsumoku made instruments, they are indestructible and can be had for very little money, now it's just a matter of waiting until the seller contacts me.

My GF got me this one for Xmas off eBay for $117.50. After setting it up and a VERY thorough cleaning I am surprised to find myself head over heels in love with the bass! I was worried that the 32" scale would sound weak, but no worries it's a tone monster and super fun to play.

I think you and I have the same taste in basses. I'm looking to trade my American made charvel 3B for something matsumoku but I can't figure out how to post in the classifieds.

Well, you need to be a supporting TBer for starters and I think the TB FAQ section should clear it up for you. Good luck on that. And I agree we probably DO have the same tastes in basses. I know I am a B-40/SB-40/Force 40 fanatic for sure.

Well at least one of the basses I own is HALF Matsumoku made. This picture shows every guitar and all the basses I currently own.

The "WestRay" is my fretless mutt bass, made with a neck of a Westone Thunder Bass which is 32 scale.
