In the end, this Commodore Bass sold locally at $NZD600. Even locals had similar thoughts to you, mate.

I surfed onto a listing featuring this Commodore Bass The listed amount is $NZD1899.00. There is very little by way of a written description, but there are a fair number of images to take the place of the proverbial one thousand words. So here we go, I hope you enjoy what I've posted here. Cheers and best wishes. Bruce

Hello, I'm Bruce Gibbins and I live in Johnsonville, New Zealand. My bass is a Behringer I picked up on a local on-line auction paying the local equivalent of £44.00. I've not played bass before, just a little guitar. But I do plan on taking lessons from a local tutor, just to have me heading in the right direction. My earliest bass influence was Shadows bassist, Jet Harris and I would like to learn some of his bass parts before he quit The Shadows to embark on a solo career before teaming up with one time Shadows drummer, Tony Meehan. I'm nudging 74, yet not so old that I can't learn something new.

On a whim and because the asking price was a bargain I bought a bass made under the Behringer brand. It's very well made and once given a set up, plays like a P Bass from which the Behringer is designed. I know from my own use that Behringer is normally associated with the manufacturer of FX pedal boxes and they also produce guitar and bass amplifiers. Yet here they are at one time, offering a fairly descent bass. There is enough of a mystery, or lack of information talking about this instrument such as its history, when they were first released, the rational, or purpose for Behringers interesting departure from the electronic tone effects boxes and amps. I can't find any references showing a range of guitars to sell alongside the bass so a mystery has been created in my mind and like other mysterys encountered in life answered need to be found. Soooo, is there some knowledge about the Behringer bass here on the forum that can be shared? I sure hope so. Cheers Bruce
