Alnus Basses - Anyone got one?

[danbanbass]

Hi Guys, 

 

I may be late to this but while looking at Vintage Fenders, considering building my own from parts I stumbled across this guy whose making them in a small village in the Rome province.

 

They sound great in the videos and look great in the photos.

 

Has anyone got any experience playing or own one?

 

For the money, around £1000 they look like they could rival the likes of Limelight/Nash and the like.

 

From what I can see Luca builds his own necks and bodies from milled wood rather than use/order in blanks.

These are great basses, I had a 51 style p which fantastic, great feel and sound. Also owned Limelights before, and both on par in terms of relicing etc.

Does the world need another Fender copy with fake aging? And if so what makes this better than all the other Fender copies with fake aging?
