2006 Birdsong Corto, handmade USA short scale, 7.6 lbs. These don't come up often and this one plays beautifully. Natural oil finish over a mahogany body, 3-piece neck, 24 frets plus zero fret, 31" scale — the classic Corto recipe. Some modifications, which are reflected in the price. Pickups...

Time to sell another Birdsong. Only recording now and my custom Birdsong that I designed is enough. Don't need the backups I have. Roll a little volume off and you can get all sorts of awesome sounds. Amazingly flexible Birdsong. You know the quality. Only trade I would even consider is...

Build sheet attached. Beautiful bass that was featured on Scott's website for years, plays effortlessly and sounds huge. I replaced the electronics with Aguilar DCBs and a 4-band Audere preamp when the original electronics started to buzz and I couldn't figure out why. It's dead silent now...

Putting out a feeler here to see if there might be some interest. I have a one of a kind Birdsong bass potentially for sale, being the first of many in several respects. This is the very first official “Birdsong Custom”, with designated serial number 11BX-001 (using the first BX prefix). It...

**Price drop to try and get this moving - $2000 for fee free payment, $2060 for PayPal G&S** I received this bass in a trade and although it’s a great looking and sounding bass, the 31” scale is just not for me. This is a Birdsong Odyssey “Artist” build bass. I don’t know a lot about Birdsong...

Very nice Birdsong Corto Bass in superb 9,8/10 condition. Comes with fitted case. All Specs. see pic please. Bass is in Germany, but international Shipping is no problem. Secure Shipping with UPS to USA is about 260,-

The Birdsong Cortobass is handbuilt in Wimberly, TX. It’s unusual to find this level of custom workmanship in a short-scale (30 1/2”) bass, but this is done right. A great bass for any player, the shorter neck/string length makes this an excellent choice for players with smaller hands or...

Tentatively for sale/trade is my Birdsong Corto II bass. Still not sure I'm giving it up but wanna test the waters, been on the fence long time. Would consider a Rick 4003 or maybe a Stingray Classic. Also interested in quality 5 string fretless basses. Hit me up if you have something sweet. It...

As stated in title I want a Birdsong C-bass which has the Pbass pickup arrangement. If interested in selling please let me know, thank you!

I am a Birdsong fan. Just had a bass custom made for me so, selling a few. (My luthier called Scott at Birdsong because I wanted to match the neck). I imagine anyone reading this ad knows the Birdsong story. Beautiful woods, No issues, great shape, drop D tuner, Variable tone switch was...

***Mustang is sold, Birdsong Embrace moved to its own thread I bought both of these basses here: SOLD - Custom Fender Mustang P/J Loaded Nothing wrong with them - I'm just interested in swapping one or both of these for something new. For example: a P-style bass with a slim neck, a hollowbody...

Like many, I am trying to thin the herd. I went short scale about 2 years ago. Until then, the Adamovic was my go to bass for live performances. It is built with unbelievable craftsmanship. I have 4 Birdsongs and an SD Curlee, so willing to let one birdsong go. I got the the gibson in a...

Short-scale, high quality handmade bass. 9 piece body made of mesquite(!), maple, and walnut. Maple neck w/ rosewood fingerboard. Ebony nut, knobs, and trussrod cover. Takes a low setup and is currently strung up with dead nickel roundwounds, I'm not sure what brand. No issues whatsoever...

Beautiful 31" fretless Birdsong, thunderous low end despite its diminutive size, lovely grain, excellent condition. Specs: Mahogany body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard, ebony nut & knobs, Hipshot tuners, Style A bridge, Kent Armstrong soapbars. Given the rosewood, I'd like to keep it in...

I finally contracted to get a bass made directly to my needs. At this point, I am playing almost exclusively shortcale Birdsong (SD Curlee) Basses. This purchase made my C-Bass redundant and I am ready to get rid of my top 34" basses. I am too lazy to sell these piece by piece, so I am...

I really hate to sell this awesome Birdsong but I'm playing guitar a lot more and I'm downsizing and I also need to pay for my cat's hyperthyroid treatment which will end up costing me close to $2000.00. Anyway, I bought this here on TB back in May 2015 and it's been a great bass that I gigged...

I am very sadly selling this mint-condition bass due to an old injury in my fretting hand that is limiting my ability to play a five-string. It is custom-made and finished in December 2017, and came out so well that Scott Beckwith decided it would be the template for his new C5 basses. Swamp...

For sale is my nearly brand new Birdsong C5, a 5 String short scale bass in mint condition. Only about 4 or so hours of playtime, the strings still have that new string snappiness to them. I have two other Birdsong's, both 4 strings, and I simply can't get comfortable on the 5. After going back...
