Hey all,

Not sure if anybody has posted this before but this bass is at Bass and Beyond in Rancho Cordova, CA. I was interested in it for a bit but don't know much about these basses. Any comments?

Scroll down the page to see the bass.

Pretty! Reminds me somewhat of an ESP Halibut, but lacking the carved top:

Their regular models remind me of Fodera and Noguera.

Did you check the price on that Wenge ESP Halibut? 630,000 Yen. Roughly $6,500 US. Woof! Even the ash version is $5,500 (525,000 yen). Nice bass but very pricy.

Yes, a lot of money for a Japanese-made bolt on neck model.
