GuyB Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 (edited) I'm selling my Bespoke EUB, any serious offers over £600 considered. I'm selling because I don't play it anymore, I've gone back to playing guitar only. I bought it for £1200 from Jon Thorne a few years back. Here's Jon Thorne's original post: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=67530&hl=colin+cross"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...;hl=colin+cross[/url] For sale - A Bespoke 3/4 Electric Double Bass by Colin Cross of Buxton Violin Shop 2009. Based on the design of the double bass Colin built for Jon Thorne in 2008. A totally unique instrument built specifically to replicate the sound and feel of a double bass as closely as possible, this quality piece of craftsmanship has many high end features including 1. A hollow body chamber to add depth and resonance to the sound, similar to Eberhard Weber's new bass design. 2. Irving Sloane Machine Heads, the finest tuners in the world 3. Fine quality flamed maple for the body and ebony for the fingerboard. 4. A Fishman Full Circle Pick Up 5. A comfortable action and a 39" stop length for greater ease of playing. 6. A custom flight case which is under the weight restrictions of all airlines and has wheels for ease of transport. 7. A detachable shoulder rest. 8. Stand. 9. Soft bag. Thanks for looking Guy More pics soon. Edited September 12, 2011 by GuyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
