$9500 German-made Lewis Bottesini circa 1960's or 1970's

For sale is a very nice German bass that has lasted me from middle school through my sophomore year of college. I had been using it for both classical and jazz, and I made the Texas all-state orchestra on it 4 years in a row. This is the perfect bass for any eager middle school, high school, or early college bassist. It is appraised for $10,000 but my asking price is only $9500. This will include the Mooradian case, Realist pickup, etc. Please reply or email for pics. Thank you. Bass is only available for local pickup in Arlington, TX: no shipping.
