the Chatoyance in the body wood is amazing the light just dances in it,
****note some of the pictures i captured, the "flame" is non-existant?

Just an incredibly beautiful bass, M3PHISTO!

thanks!
I saw what i believe to be this exact bass hanging in Guitar Center Hollywood in 1999-2000... got to play it, then was crushed when i saw the 7K price tag!
Knew just KNEW that one day i would own one (or one like it)
Imagine my surprise when it shows up on eBay and TB classifieds. In the very area i currently reside!
had to have it! jettisoned all but the most necessary equipment to generate the $$ in less than 2 weeks!
It is the most singularly Exquisite example of a Dolphin i have ever laid my eyes on...
and I spent YEARS searching.
