Does anyone else notice that the pictures of the front and back of this bass look like two different insruments with the back view bass having far more offset horns?  Maybe it's just the perspective.  In any case, the price seems pretty good for a series instrument.

I think the price is pretty good too.  The listing is dated April 9; some I'm guessing it's been sold by now.
 
And yes, the rear view picture is kinda weird.  It's taken at an angle, rather than straight on, the angle being easier to see looking at the heal; but even given that, it still looks weird.
 
You would have to find another Schaller; which is not an easy thing.  And you would probably want pictures of the alternate screw holes.
 
The description kinda sounds familiar; and I wondering if maybe it was listed on Ebay at some point.
 
Anybody live near Belford, NJ?

I'm guesing Dave's right -- I e-mailed the seller months ago and got no reply, so it must have sold quickly.
Call me crazy, but I liked the shot of the back better than I liked the shot of the top.
