Hi

I speak for the entire community when I say this, please do not create multiple threads.

As far as the bass goes, it is through a dealer, so I would assume it to be legit. If it is not, they will accept a return because you cannot sell a counterfeit as legit. Either way, if you are interested in a $4,500 bass, it is worth a phone call to the dealer to talk about the bass.

Sorry for the double thread, I have already spoken with the store personal. They say is original.

That is the reason I ask help here.

The only thing I am doubtful is that no has serial number.

It's the real deal man

 

[TRichardsbass]

Its original. GTRStore is a legit place, I know Steve Pisani and the rest of the gang well. They have a few pieces that are very special, this and a couple of Foderas in particular.

Thanks Alot for your Help Colleagues, I really appreciate it.

I dunno man, I'd be worried about a bass with a "finish scratch on the string"...

 

[Raspatue]

Seems legit. i have two early 90s CT basses also wothout serial..

 

[lalobass]

Anybody know what wood is used on it?

 

[ursusaltered]

Walnut body, bycote center, padauk or blood wood stringers. Maple neck, not sure of fingerboard, looks like either rosewood, king wood, or pau fero

I was wondering Why this Bass only has jack input ( no controls) ?
I never have seen a Bass like this.

I have 6 CT basses, I can confirm that it's real.
