Well, I'm not sure if 2 basses makes a family, but here they are...

BTW. The mismatched D string tuning machine on the 55-01 is due to the bass getting knocked over and snapping the key off. Haven't got around to getting a replacement yet!

Nice combo! So did you make sure the person who knocked over the 55-01 will never be able to play the flute again?:eyebrow:

Thanks, and yes, that was sorted out right away quick!! Actually it was a drummer that was the culprit, but he was very apologetic.

Mark. The 55-02 is indeed a fretless (and I'm kinda loving it too!)

I had a drummer friend kick one of my basses over once.....completely by acccident, but I still give him a hard time about it....we were both on worship team for our church and he was trying to climb out from the sneeze guard that surrounds the drum kit and through a crowded platform. His foot got snagged on my cable that unfortunately was still attached to my Benavente 219B at the time. Let's just say that watching $1600 fall face first out of it's stand will make your heart stop......but no harm no foul.....fortunately it landed perfectly flat on it's face and didn't do any damage to it what so ever......

Nice Fretless too....I've got a 55-02 F-less in CAR....love it to pieces.....just wish I was better at playing it.....:D
