Hi guys,
Ok, this is a very reluctant sale. I've not owned the bass long, though have recently had a large need for some funds (read below). This is one of the best fretless basses you can buy. It's previous owner (Ville), will confirm that it beats others, including Fodera, hands down.
I'm primarily a bass trombonist, and need some urgent repair work doing on my Edwards bass trombone due to wear and tear. I have worn a hole through one of the outer slide tubes, where the horn is held... too much practice you see.. It's going to be a struggle to pay for the repair/replacement, and my priorities really are with my bass trombone, it's what I study and work primarily as. So, something has to go unfortunately.

This is a link to the last for sale thread, from Ville. An absolute legend and top guy, who loved the bass, and will vouch for how incredible it really is. He was kind enough to include a new set of Thomastik strings, which will come with the bass.
The bass also has a brand new Thomann hard case.
It has the finest pre-amp i've EVER come across. The East U-Retro 5 knob deluxe. It is unbelievably versatile.. Any sound is achievable.
Near mint condition. No wear on the fretboard. Works flawlessly, plays effortlessly. Incredible action, perfect fretless tone.
Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask/PM me.

Many thanks all, and very best wishes-
Matt
