ACK! I fell in love with this bass at the Alembic Gathering last year!

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!

    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
