Odyssey B300 bass - rare Attila Balogh bass from the 1970s £1900 YORK

[emoryi]

I'm currently selling my long scale basses as I move over to medium and short scale. As such, this beautiful and rare Odyssey B300 is now available.

 

These were built in the 1970s by Attila Balogh in Vancouver, Canada. His guitars and basses are known for their superb quality, easily rivalling Fenders and Gibsons of that period in terms of workmanship. It's well worth looking into facts and details about Attila Balogh and Odyssey, as it's a truly fascinating story.

 

I had this bass shipped over from Canada a few years ago. I have barely played it due to increasing discomfort with long scales. It has been well played, and shows the usual wear and tear, but has no major damage, scratches or defects.

 

The body is a flat top mahogany, with an ebony fingerboard, brass nut, bridge and fittings. The Bartolini pickups give this bass a rich resonant tone. It comes with the original hard case.

 

I do travel, so may be able to deliver

Weight please?

Cheers.

I don't have a weight for it, but I'll see if I can manage to weigh it later today. I don't think it's particularly heavy, but I may just be used to it. It is mahogany, so it's not going to be light either!
