ACK! I fell in love with this bass at the Alembic Gathering last year!
Beautiful top!
pasewark,
Did you meet the basses current owner, Bill?
I'm pretty sure I did. I remember meeting a lot of people that day. It's a beautiful bass and I'm very interested in how it sounds. Alas, I'm waiting on my brown bass, so even if I wanted to buy it, I couldn't right now. !
A great Top, and the fine piping veneers really emphasize the top! WOW!
Very interested bass !
1: I had not seen Bookmatch to Center at that time (arround 80').
2: The horns and cutaway are not typical SSB, just like old small body (arround the serial No 25 to 40's).
3: The body edge radius is square like than others, just like as my Hyak.
4: 3 layered accent laminate is very rare at that time.
How about the serial number ?
Maybe it is on the fingerboard end.
Of course the bass is very nice one.
I think it is one of custom grade instruments.

I also sent an email, but I am sure I am too late.

I bought it - for a lot more than he was originally asking.
It only seemed fair to pay closer to market price.
Longhorncat - That's good news! I too was going to offer more than what he was asking. But I didn't want to step on any toes here.
If you decide you don't like it, we can work something out. Oh, and don't move the strap button!
Michael
Congratulations Bill !
The seller also posted it locally in my neck of the woods on Craigslist;

I was amazed when I saw it and was extremely tempted to drive a just a few miles to buy it. But I was also resisting because I am waiting for my lined fretless Series I/II to show up for grabs. Thanks for buying it. It looks like an awesome Bass

Congrats! Beautiful bass!
Thank you. I've had this empty feeling since I sold my Distillate last December.
I did a little dance when we finalized the deal on this bass.
It only seemed fair to pay closer to market price.
That's why I like being a member of this club.
Congratulations Bill. I, like apparently many others here, was tempted by this one.

I was ready to offer twice the asking price, but the tailpiece looked off center..... ;)
