    This bass is posted from a pawn shop with no information on the brand, etc. It is listed for $800. The curves on the lower bout are interesting and might help someone identify it. I might go take a look at it today.

    Any info on possible origins and things to look for is much appreciated.

    Thanks, Mike

    Only the first picture will enlarge, but it looks like it might be a Christopher plywood (decent Chinese bass) with Busetto corners. Is there a label inside?

    KUNGfuSHERIFF, thanks for the tip. I haven't seen the bass yet and the post indicated that the pawn shop didn't know what it was. It looks decent and I'm looking for a decent ply beater for festivals. I'm not sure what I did wrong attaching the other pics.

    Thanks, Mike

    I went to check-out the bass yesterday evening and it was a 1/2 size bass, not what I'm looking for. I think it was a Christopher.
