Club Alleva-Coppolo (Part 21)

Hi guys, as you can see, I've suspended my dealer status and am currently not selling basses. Nothing to do with Jimmy or his basses- I love Jimmy and I love his instruments. I'm just settling some personal matters.

I might hang around this forum a little more often since I'm able to speak a little more freely now that I'm not a dealer or commercial user.

Oh yeah, and here's a little eye candy. As I closed the dealer status, shortly after delivering the final two basses to a few new friends in AZ and TN, I picked this up from Jimmy. As good as it gets. Booty in the low end and articulate yet buttery and creamy treble. Mids are defining. Fast, thick, custom neck. Professor finish, DN board. Truly grateful.

Beauty bass! Love the colour!
Last bass built in Cali or is this a first for Alabama Sammy?

For those who have not been watching the TB classifieds, I have this available for sale or trade.
As stated in my ad, I'm more of a 5 string player at heart and traditionally prefer playing J basses....but still enjoy Ps. This bass is solid...
For Sale/Trade - Alleva Coppolo KBP4 Classic Supreme Limited Edition - Open to offers!
I'm open to cash sale or trade offers

What's up Chris. Hope you're doing well. Haven't talked to you in a while. This was finished in Alabama. The body had been cut in CA but the neck was finished in Alabama and so was everything else.

That KBP4 is legit! I wish I had the funds to snag it.
 
They don't have a physical store at the moment, so guessing no employees either, other than the owner, who has a day job (and is a gigging bassist).

Nothing against Bass Club Chicago, but John Fox Bass has always got back to me quickly (he told me he doesn't sleep much, which explains a lot :D ).

Yes, John is great. I bought two basses from him and he provides top notch customer service.
