Eminence with removable neck, gig bag, hard shell case.... very nice condition.... rarely played out. I’m away from home right now and cannot post photos.... add shipping to price (depending on your location).... anyone requesting photos will be given priority at this point. Please check out...

Natural, fretless, Godin base with acousticore strings. Very good condition, with gig bag. Lightly used, as close to a string bass vibe as I have ever heard on a bass guitar. Yes, I do play upright, so I am sensitive to making sure that my instruments are as true to form as possible...

This Stingray is in almost showroom-condition.... I'm not aware of any dings or blemishes.... it's also by far the best sounding bass in my collection. The reason I'm selling ?... I've got "7" basses... not a lot by some standards.... but a lot for me.... and as a guy who's been focusing on...

Complete with a set of "flats" this bass is in almost flawless condition... the exception being the small ding on the back of the headstock. It's complete with the OHSC. I'm "thinning out the herd"... and this is one of a couple that I'll be letting go.. I'm just so involved with upright these...

This fiver is in near flawless condition (one ding pictured on headstock).... complete with OHSC, this bass has seen very little playing time... too many basses... only 5-fingers ! Price: $725 + shipping... Made in USA... like new... at a pretty fair savings. Price is firm. PayPal accepted.

i have and play an upright but have decided to return to my slab roots for awhile. I have two wonderful 5-strings... A Fender P-bass(passive 5-string) and a MusicMan "HH" 5-string... Active pups. I love both if these basses, especially the active MM... And am using stock rounds on it ( & stock...

A good friend of mine, a professional concert musician and a luthier, sent me three sets of strings after I told him I was thinking of looking for a different "jazz" sound for my Upton hybrid Bohemian. I am not (but would like at least to get into) an arco player. I love the sound of mt...

It arrived today, a 4HH Dimension with a rosewood fretboard... beautiful... light, and with the action a little low for my taste ( a little fret buzz)... it went straight from my dealer to my car to a gig... the first note played on the thing was live with a 15 piece band in front of an...

I've been a fan of Fender and owned their basses since 1964. I had a chance to play (and loved) the new "HH" Dimension bass 4-string so I ordered one through a very fine local dealer back in November... scheduled arrival date was end of January... so I knew I had to wait ! Now I find that...

I had Bill make this for me in the past year... I actually had to pleasure of hanging out with him one night when we went through his shop and went over what I wanted... pretty cool. I actually had one of these when I was playing back in the '60's... this is a replica... even down to the flat...

I've got 3 nice basses... each in to $1500+ range... and as I only travel locally I don't really care about using my bass cases... just a "gig" bag. Well, for Christmas I'm treating myself to a new one. I've had "fur-lined" Levi cases before but decided to go with a nice new Levi "Leather"...

As no one has any of these yet, (and I've got one on order)... let me be the first to start a little "fan club" .... "membership thread" for the Fender Dimension AMERICAN bass ! Mine will be red/HH pick-ups/ 4 string... and is due for arrival in late January... at which time I will be happy to...

I'm in the market for a resonable deal on a fretted Rob Allen (I do a lot of big band stuff and have my hands full just geting through the charts)... .... not a "Mouse"... it could be a four or five string (5 string preferred).... eventually one will show up (they always do)... I just thought...

Sometimes it's time to re-shuffle the deck... this time around I'm offering up 3 of my very favorite basses. Two are made by Bill Nash, one by Dave Wendler. I almost exclusively use basses that are made by folks I can get to know, not just something mass marketed and made in parts "unknown"...

Between fingering positions and no "D" reference staring down a chart while playing a slab has been a lot of hit-and-miss.... a new group I'm with wants only slab so I figure I'd better re-learn the thing... any ideas on how to "cheat" to help with the transitions between the two ? Art Fahie...

Guys, It's time for me to sell my "Knutson"... it's not just "any: Knutson, this one has the deluxe pick-up, flight case... the whole deal. yes, it's a "D" neck, yes, it's in great condition, and yes... it's a great sounding instrument. (I recently bumped someone else from a spot in a 16...

This one really has my attention, especially the playabiity of the sloped shoulders. Can any of the folks who now have one give us an in-depth non-biased review of the thing ? Art Fahie Maine

Chris... the "finisher" at Upton was kind enough to e-mail me the very first steps he's taken in finishing my new deluxe-top "Bohemian".... this part of the project will take about two more days of oiling/varnishing or whatever it is they do... the colors will change dramatically as will the...

Two new videos on the Upton website, personally the thing seems so "sweet" I'm glad I didn't upgrade to it when I ordered my "Bohemian"... Given my abilities I'd never be worthy of owning such an instrument !

Invalid Link Removed I'm curious to see the finished instrument ! Art Fahie Maine

When playing in a big band situation. Do you keep your bass more predominant than your amp or do you run into times that your amp becomes the prevelant source of sound ? Your Diane Schuur album is one I always recommend to anyone trying to understand the mechanics and sounds of a big band...

I'm at the point of needing something "less"... less volume, less weight etc. This amp is in GREAT condition, it generally was used around the house. As I live in Maine and this thing would be a bear to ship so a local (northeastern) sale would be best. I'd like to see about $1200 out of it...

'Deleted'

Hmmm.... I'm definitely aging. "Contra" Series III for sale... like new ... $800+ shipping. Sorry for the screw-up. Art Fahie Maine

Never played "out", purchased new, a true "basement queen". VG/Excellent condition. $800 + shipping. LET'S START OVER ... IT'S A "CONTRA"... it just goes to show how little use it gets ! Art Fahie Maine

This bass is probably the "pride" of my fleet but I just don't have any time to play it. I'm the original owner and this bass has seen nothing more than my basement... as a result it's in great condition. "Sunburst" finish. The price is $900 + shipping, I have my own UPS account so the...

This bass is like new and features a Barbera pick-up. Fully equipped with an SBK flight case & tripod stand this sunburst finished 4-string upright EUB is flawless. No photo attached, but it can be viewed on the Knutson website. Price new: about $3800. I'm looking to sway for an acoustic...

I have two wonderful EUB's... I only need one. For sale is my "never-played-out" Ergo that I purchased new a little over a year ago. The strings have been replaced by 1/2 sized Corellis. The instrument is in excellent shape and sits in my music room pretty much doing nothing... which is why I...

Many of you may know about this, but I just discovered it this morning. As a guy who's "jazz-prone" (but who doesn;t get to play very often) I often (most of the time) can't recall changes to many tunes and while I can feel my way around much of the time... some of the time I wind up in...

When it comes to prices what PRICE ranges constitute low-mid-and high-end EUB's ? I know the Ergo is a "value" priced instrument... when does the "price-ometer" click into the "mid" & "high-end" price ranges. I'm always curious as to how you other folks judge this.

I've got to admit I was impressed by the sound clips and the attitude of John Knudsen over at the Knudson Luthiery... other was known as the home of the "Messenger" bass...so I ordered one with the 'EXTRA SPECIAL SUPER DUPER PICK-UP" (which I can't remember the name of)... at any rate I think it...

Living in Maine I get NO exposure to upright basses... I've spent my life playing electrics and have loved my experience with my Ergo EUB so much that: 1) I no longer touch my bass "guitars" 2) I'm thinking along the lines of a "real" acoustic. I've been "surfing" & have found lots of...

Something that would be reasonably price would be better. Also, has anyone any experience with the "Ergo" cello ? Thanks.

My "Babies"... each has a unique purpose. Fender '57P (Actually A Nash with Lindy Fralin pick-ups)... how could you get a better mojo than a bass like this ? (except for the real thing !) "Wendler Electro-Acoustic" : An oversized cedar body & Piezo pick-ups bring a warmth & sustain to...

Okay, I purchased one, finally got to trying to hook it up tonight. True, I'm "old school", but where do you put your 1/4" phono jacks ?... According to the manual :" The SHUTTLE 6.0® provides two Neutrik Speak-On™ connectors (wired 1+/1-). The speaker jacks are paralleled."... my 1/4" jack...

I'm running (2) GK cabinets... both are the "regular" and NOT the "backline" models. (1) 2x10, & (1) 1x15"... both cabinets are rated at 8 ohms. I'm putting my '57P bass through them and need a new head... my old GK head is rated at 4 ohms and can't handle the impedences with BOTH cabinets...

I just picked-up a Nash '57P... it has Lindy Fralin pups. The strings are roundwound, back in the 60's my original P's had flats. Admittedly I'm less than comfortable with the rounds on this new piece. Any suggestions?... I lean towards flats but am open to any ideas. Thanks. Art Maine

I tried one today at GC... I grew up in the 60's playing Precisions (about 3 of them, I could could trade them for a BMW today !)... and although I haven't had an "original" in my hands for years the "new" version seemed light, I didn't much care about the string-thru-body feature, and the...

I just purchased one, I'd be open to using it for the bass, but I just don't know what I'd be in for. Yes, I have the optional bass module option for the system.

I've got a Wendler "Electro-Acoustic" with TI flats on it... it has a nice acoustic quality to it... just what I'm looking for when it comes to trio stuff, or even just playing against an acoustic guitar like I did last week. I just got a "Tony Franklin" P-Bass... serious stuff, I always...
