This is a very cool bass. I would love to keep it, but I have some home repairs coming up.
It has some dings here and there, and the binding is separating a bit in places. (I tried to show this in the photos.) I'm not looking for trades at the moment.

I've never heard a Kala U Bass (I've seen them, but never played one), so I just looked it up on youtube. They are really cool sounding!
There is a video clip of the Rob Allen on this thread:
SOLD - Rob Allen Mouse with Magnetic Pickups (Trades Updated)
I think he gets a good representation of the tone on that clip.

The Rob Allen sounds like a more traditional electric bass than the clips that I've heard of the U Bass. I think the nylon strings and the piezo contribute a lot to that sound. I don't think nylon strings would work with the magnetic pickups though.
