For sale Eminence 5 string double bass - detachable neck model

SOLD!!!!!! – 5 STRING EMINENCE PORTABLE UPRIGHT BASS - the first fully acoustic portable upright bass with an easily removable neck. This is my own travel bass which I’m reluctantly selling and it’s priced (with SKB flightcase & all accessories) at £1575 for a quick sale. Selling an old friend but I’m afraid funds need to be diverted elsewhere. I bought this Eminence over 10 years ago to help ease the hassle of flying a double bass around and used it professionally up until 18 months ago when I stopped touring.

Cosmetically, it has a few small road dings but nothing anywhere approaching major (see photos). Structurally the bass is perfect with the exception of the bridge which cracked over 5 years ago when I was on the road. I did an emergency repair with glue at the time – the repair held and the bass has played perfectly ever since! AT THE TIME, I IMPORTED A REPLACEMENT BRIDGE BUT DIDN’T FIT IT & I’M INCLUDING IT WITH THIS SALE. I’m also including a superb SKB flightcase which is a perfect fit for the bass and offers great protection - the case is in excellent condition. Also included is the stand and gig bag (see photos).
