Very nice!

Cool Quilt!

That is a very nice bass

I'm really interested in that bass, but the shipping costs are very expensive to the uk.
If anyone  knows a good price to ship this to the uk please drop me an email so I can see if the seller will accept an alternative shipper.

This is the owner of that bass.  If you know anyone who travels to the UK, you can hand carry it and eliminate the shipping (and duty, if you don't tell them it's staying).

Hey Robert, welcome to the club! How about some pictures of your Mark king 5 string in the showcase section? I think I won't be in the race for this beautiful Elan, I have not found a serious buyer for my Gibson yet...
 
Good luck selling this bass and good luck with your future 'back up' Alembic
 
Cheers!

Hi Robert, welcome to the board.  Nice bass!

Thanks Earthling, I'm on the case. However i think with the current airline security issues it may not be that easy.

Hey fc... the Mark King is on the showcase.  It sure is pretty.  Funny, I don't have any pictures of my kids, but I can show you my bass.  What does that say about me?  Bad daddy, baaaaaad daddy.
(Well okay, they're in their 20's now.)

Hey Robert, Funny thing is I first saw your showcase post and wondered where your 3th post was... Well, I haven't got any pictures of my kids neither... I'm not even shure if I have any kids... So if I am a dad you would be a great dad compared to me! -LOL-
