Amazing instrument being offered up for sale or trade as I can’t afford to own anymore basses! So to try more, I must sell or trade!

Here are the specs:
Specs:
-34.5" Scale - Standard F-Bass BN Series
-19mm String Spacing with 'B' Bridge
-10.6 lbs
-Incredible and unique Figured Maple Top (a $1700 upgrade if ordered new, and currently unavailable from FBass)
-Maple body binding ($400 upgrade)
-3 piece Maple Neck
-Figured Ash body
-Asian Ebony Fretboard

List price would be about $6500 US if new.

Selling price is $4000 USD with shipping included to the USA (Lower 48 States) or within Canada. International shipping possible at a premium. Payment via PayPal too.

As for trades, only interested in 4 or 5 string basses. No 6's please or any bass strung with a C string. Brands of high interest: Alleva Coppolo, Sadowsky, Wal, or possibly Fodera. May look at others, but I'll be picky.

You told me not to look at this listing because it would drive me crazy.
I looked anyway, and now I am crazy. (But that's nothing new :D)

Sweet sweet bass. Good thing I'm terrible at 5 string. Good luck with the sale!

So I see you got that gorgeous Alleva Coppolo P bass. I was eyeing that up. I just traded my 2018 Lakland USA 44-64 P bass for a gorgeous 2018 Lakland USA 44-94 with a figured top. Straight trade. I'm actually considering selling my F Bass BN4. I love it but I'm more of a traditional bass guy. I love Jazz basses and P basses. I also just got a new JetGlo Ric 4003 last November from my wife and kids for my birthday. I think I'm getting a Lakland USA 44-60 jazz bass next. Then I'll look for another P bass (I think I actually want a Fender custom shop P. The post modern P looks nice and has the jazz neck).

Yes I did. I’m a 5 string player for the most part, but have lately been getting more interested in 4 strings. I will never sell off all my 5s, that is for sure. But that Alleva Coppolo KBP4 is something special worth keeping. The guy I bought it from sold his Fender Custom Shop P after playing my KBP4.

Sweet! The sound clips on the Alleva Coppolo were incredible. I'm afraid to try Jimmy's basses because then I'll probably wanna sell my Lakland and buy an Alleva!!! It never ends!!! ;-) Do you still have the Wal MK4?

Jimmy’s basses are in a league on their own. Just like Wal. :)
The Wal 4 is still in transit, I haven’t received it yet.
