1978, sorry about the glare. I'd like to put a mint green guard on it

The best bass on the planet.

it's a Benavente 51p... I've got a 6 string fretless one too.

I like the color of that pickguard. More red than most tort guards (which are starting to look more wine colored). Looks great on the white. Do you know who made it? Jeannies?

Chris cuts them himself... you could ask him who his supplier is.

When you look at the cost of a new Fender, Musicman, Ric, etc... it was a bargain to me. Especially for a hand made bass of this quality that was built to my exact specs... but I get your point.

I'm 15, so $2k is a ton for me. If it was like.. $1400-$1600ish, maybe I'd consider it. But until then, I can stare. I'm probably getting a custom Carvin though, so..

I hear that... I started on a Sears/pennies catalog better from the 70s that my grandfather rescued from a garbage can... then spent paper route and birthday money on an ibanez destroyer (1982)... that lasted me 5 years until I was out of school.
I had a carvin, nice basses!

I'm going for a B40, probably in white. Once I get that, I'll probably only want or need a 5-er, 6-er, and a fretless. I'll be pretty good after that IMO.
