Yeah, some guy named Jimmy. Somebody told me he played both backwards AND upside down. A righty told me that. Go figure... ;)

Canadian dollar bump. For you US citizens that might be interested in this fine instrument, that's $1600 CANADIAN dollars asking price. As of January 31, 2014, the direct exchange makes that $1439-ish US dollars.

OK gents, big changes are afoot here and sweet as this bass, is I'm reducing the number of basses in my stable. Just not playing enough to have these fine instruments sit idly by when somebody else can do them justice. Consequently I'm offering up another price drop bump. If I can see $1400 Canadian dollars. That would be great. That's about $1280 US. Plus shipping.

Alrighty, cash needs being what they are, I've decided to drop her in price yet again. My previous theory, exhibited elsewhere, that RAISING the price would be the way to go, was clearly... um... wrong. :? This is what I get for listening to non musician friends telling me about selling things.

So, do I hear $1200 Canadian plus shipping? That's about $1075 US, or about 850 Euro for our friends across the pond.

Even though Christmas is coming, thankfully, the need for funds is slowly abating. I'd like to open this bass up for trades. It truly is a great bass but I'm looking for something different. So possible trades I would consider would be one of those newer Ibanez 1205EL 5 strings, or an MM Stingray 5. Remember folks, the M Bass does also come with a very good quality Reunion Blues Continental gig bag. These sell for around $200 last time I looked. I would also consider a Warwick NT of some sort.

My apologies if this appears flaky but I'm having a very hard time justifying a stupid low price for this bass. So... price back up bump.

Again gents, this is an awesome bass, quality wise, just not exactly what I'm looking for. In fact, talking about quality, and to put it in perspective, if I stack this bass up side by side with my F Bass BNF5, which was over $5k new, this bass is incredibly close to the same level of workmanship. It's just a different beast. I'm going to put the price back up to $1250 US firm plus actual shipping. This is on par with my Talkbass listing.

This bad boy appears to have finally sold. Part payment received, and then, off to Japan. Stable reduced to three. Enough with the bass sales already.
