Up for sale (or trade) at the moment is this Manne 4 string fretted bass. Price is $2,075 shipped to your home in the USA. It's in fantastic condition.
I originally purchased this in 2018 from NordSound in Norway for €1.850 Euros (about $2,170 in USD) Since purchasing it, I made these upgrades:
1. Replaced the Wilkinson tuners to Gotoh brand.
2. Replaced the bridge which was originally chrome for the same manne bridge in black to match the rest of the hardware.
3. I added a nice looking banded inlay at the 12th fret.
4. Finally since the original logo on the headstock was very light, I recently took the bass to a custom wood worker to have him laser burn the logo through a special computerized system. It's a spot on trace and looks fabulous. (See before and after photos)
The bass weighs in at just over 8 pounds. Here are the rest of the specs. Please feel free to write if you have any other questions.
