    Double Bass Fishman Full Circle repairable?

    GREAT BUYING EXPERIENCE! Vendor recommendation

    So, I decided I wanted a Sandberg SuperLight (old guy, sore back on long gigs). So, I started searching. Inadvertently, online I came across a store in Durham, NC called "SoundPure". They had a new SuperLight that was already notably less expensive than any other outlet I found during my...
