Whoa, now that's a rare old bit of stuff.

Sadly (for me) I don't have 3k to drop on a bass right now. I used to own a Skjold WB 6 some years ago though, excellent instrument, great sound, great neck, it was superb and probably the most comfortable 6 I've had. The original config for the electronics had a rotary pickup selector rather than a more conventional balance control, it wasn't to my liking so I contacted Pete Skjold who was very generous with his time and assistance. A balance arrived shortly afterwards from John East.

GLWTS although I doubt you'll need much luck to sell this...
