maurice Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) [b][size=5]SOLD[/size][/b] I tried to make the transition from 6 strings to 5 and purchased this bass just a month ago, absolutely new. I am a 6'er so this bass should find a new home (I will probably regret after selling ). This is an F-Bass BN5 model with upgraded Black Ceruse finish, hand-made by master-luthier George Furlanetto in Canada. The bass is absolutely new, not even a minor sign on it. It ships with the new F-Bass protec gig-bag which is much better than the old model. [u]Specs:[/u] [list] [*]3 piece quarter-sawn maple neck with a maple fingerboard [*]Ash body [*]2 F-Bass stacked, single coil/hum cancelling magnetig pickups [*]Upgraded Black Ceruse finish [/list] This bass can play just any tone you can think of. It has an active/passive switch, 3 band EQ, 34.5" scale. I put on it a brand new set of LaBella Super Steps and it has been professionally set-up, including action and intonation. Plays like butter. [u]Price:[/u] This bass lists for $3,750 (€2,700 / ₤2,300) The upgraded finish is $650 (€460 / ₤400) [u]Asking:[/u] [b][color="#FF0000"]$2,760[/color][/b] (€1,950 / ₤1,700) + actual shipping Paypal is OK (e-check only). I am based in Tel Aviv, Israel. Will ship worldwide with FedEx International, fully insured and trackable, delivered in 2 working days. The photos have been shot by the store from where I purchased the bass. I assume these are much better quality than what I can take from my camera, but if anyone is interested let me know and I will do my best.

molan Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 (edited) Hi Maurice - is the price now the same as the one on TalkBass? Just checking as I can't see what the price drop is from your original post? Edited August 15, 2009 by molan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking as I can't see what the price drop is from your original post?[/quote] Hi, I posted a new ad for a weekend-only bump on TB: $2600 + actual shipping cost. Grab it today and it's yours for this price Otherwise the price here matches the one advertised on my original post on TB. Thanks, M- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Sorry Maurice - I'm confused, In one post you've said price reduced and it's $2,600 (about £1,600) and the title of the thread says price 'drop' but your link to TB and the original post says it's now $2,950 (£1,800) so it's gone up up rather than down? Apologies if I'm getting completely the wrong end of the stick here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted a weekend bump on TB and offered the bass for $2600 + shipping only for the weekend period. Just tried to push the sale. Weekend is over so... back to the original post now. M.
