well,it is officially for sale,so if anybody is interested feel free to PM me......I'm also selling a ZON VB4 with a beatiful koa top.....

that is truly a beautiful instrument,I've owned pretty much one of everything other than a Fodera and a few other highend brands,and that bass is fantastic,it looks fancy without looking like furniture if you get what I mean haha.Some of the newer basses are just over the top with Burl...

I dont really want to sell it on ebay,the last high end bass i sold on there was a pain in the butt and I wanted to make sure it ended up with a player,but it ended up in a store marked way up....Is this sight a good place to sell something like this? do you have any other suggestions?
