Abjatar Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) As much as I love this bass, bills need to be paid and I have to let it go. I only bought it off of a fellow basschatter last year after having searched one forever. - 1st gen Arpege bass (1984) - Walnut wings - neckthrough Maple & Walnut neck. - Phenowood Fingerboard - Brass plate between fingerboard and neck for reinforcement -> the neck is mega stable - Benedetti Pickups (bridge pickup is new) - original electronics! - serial: 239 comes with the original hard case. shipping in bomb proof packaging is no problem. located in Germany.

wright/watt Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I owned this beautiful Vigier before selling onto @Abjatar Yet another of life's bass regrets! These early Arpege basses come up so rarely for obvious reasons, they are that good! Somebody will be very happy here😁 GLWTS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the seem to have changed their website. Maybe just drop them an email. Alternatively, someone in Germany is currently selling one on our classifieds. https://m.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/vigier-original-tonabnehmer/2023496855-74-5777 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
