SOLD Y-Man Custom 6-String Bass Neck Thru

I am a professional musician and have experience with numerous transactions over craigslist/talkbass including but not limited to: instruments, vehicles (mainly), books, furniture, etc.


I am selling my Y-Man Custom Single Cut 6-string bass (tuned B-C). This is a 34" inch scale, thru-neck bass made in Seoul, South Korea that is shaped like a Fodera (single cut). It is in excellent condition, as I am the original owner who had it made by Y-Man Guitars in Seoul, South Korea in 2006.


Asking Price is $800 OBO. Shipping paid by buyer. No Trades. Cash Only (paypal).


The bass was repaired at the headstock/neck joint because it was severed, but was professionally re-glued by Pat Matheny’s repairman in Boston, Mass.

As numerous pro-musicians have played my instrument, they did not even notice tone wise or cosmetically that it was repaired. The bass is flawless
