Very nice, but no.

You and me both, Roger! Thats a lot of moolah for what is, after all, an EUB ... even if a very high quality EUB. I flagged it up as there may be someone who is itching for one of these, given their rarity value

Quite relaxing, really.

omg. And not a price tag in sight.

No danger to me though. A bit like gassing for an Aston Martin; would you really want to take one to the supermarket car park?

I'd end up getting a music room specially built to house the thing. And air conditioning. And insurance. And swearing not to play it while pissed.

And no matter when I played it I'd still sound like cr*p. :0

Too much choice can be bad. How would you ever make a decision? How many of those would you need to play?

Truly staggered at the notion of being able to just buy a double-bass made in 1755. Basschat needs an emoticon for wide-eyed astonishment.
