voxpop Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) HI Guys, I picked up this amazing Brook 5 string Acoustic in a trade a few months back and have been using it every since as my main gigging bass. I need to raise some cash because I am gassing for another bass I have found on the good old web. It has Chrome flats installed and I have personaly carved a new bridge out of bone to get the action correct for all strings. These cost somewhere around £2500 to build and cost me around £1500 in a trade. I am looking for a quick sale of £900 only while the other bass is still available. Can post out in a hard case but would rather meet up half way. [url="http://www.brookguitars.com/"]http://www.brookguitars.com/[/url] Also do a search on here for the complete listing history. [attachment=74758:otter_2.jpg] [attachment=74757:otter.jpg] Thanks. Please Pm if you are intested. Edited March 19, 2011 by voxpop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_zimmerman Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I've been lusting after this bass ever since it went up for sale last summer--amazing price for an instrument of this quality! Just wish it was reasonable to ship overseas, and wish I had the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franzbassist Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 If anyone is in the market for a top notch acoustic, you really can't do better than this, and at this price it's an incredibly good buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voxpop Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) I have had a lot of interest on this bass but still need to sell it quickly. If anyone is interested than please contact me with a PM as I will withdraw the Brook at the weekend. Sorry to rush any potential buyer but I believe the bass I want to buy will be sold this weekend. Thanks Edited March 17, 2011 by voxpop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
