Double Bass "Amazing" Upright Electric Bass

[JohnTate]

Hi gang !!!
I'm looking for any information about the "Amazing Musical Instrument Company" and specifically their upright electric bass.
The body of the bass is shaped somewhat like a canoe paddle. It's done in an amber-burst finish (beautiful !!!!) and has open-gear, black Grover machine heads on it. It has a 4-bolt neck and a single, very large volume pot, mounted into a metal plate, on the back.
Does anyone know of or know anything at all, about these instruments ?
Many thanks !!!!!

There was a line of electric instruments, the whole violin family, but I think the brand was "Aamazing", and it was canadian made.
But it was long ago, and it doesn,t seem to exits anymore.

Merci, Francois !
Through some other contacts I have been able to determine that it was a Canadian made product (you're correct). There was some talk that the original owner of the company was working at The 12th Fret, in Toronto. But, I wasn't able to confirm that when I called them.
Thanks again !!
John

I bought an Amazing 5 bass in 1988 in Toronto
It had a phenolic neck and fingerboard
