I'd be nice if someone here got it.  Too many strings (and the scale length is too long) for me.

If my Earthwood Bass sells for what I hope to get for it, I might consider scooping up Bonnie. What do you all think?

How much are you asking for the Earthwood Acoustic bass? Please contact me.

The Earthwood is on consignment for the next two months, so I will have to refer you to the shop. It's a '72 in near mint condition, so it won't be cheap. I'm in NY and will gladly work with a club member to get this bass into a good home. E-mail me.
 
I heard back from Edwin almost immediately. He expects to have the bass in hand in three weeks, and the price is still under negotiation. Since he listed it this morning, he's had a dozen inquiries including mine. This could heat up, folks.

When you open photo 1 you can just feel Paul's presence.

Makes me sad ... looks like the Rob Allen MB2 Paul bought from me is up also... what a spirit he was, thundering through the Payottenland, with Lambic coursing through his veins & an Alembic in his hands!

Opening photo 1 was hard on the heart (and eyes).  That's a special instrument in every way.
