Beautiful, but 20 kiloquid puts it slightly out of my price range.  I have a 5 pound note in my wallet (just in case I need to lose a quick 5 pounds, nyuk nyuk), so it's about 19,995UKP out of my range.

Great wood.  Interesting shaped violin (?) on the wall in the headstock pic.

Bill, I think it was October, 1714-- Liver Cirrhosis.
 
That wood looks like plasticized (plasticised for our international audience) cancer specimens.

No,it's the 1714 - The Dragon's Pancreas and it's mine! I've shipped it to Alembic and they're upgrading it to a 36 scale series II right now. Check next months FC (hey FC, sounds familiar to me!)
 
Sorry, me = trying to be funny
That D-bass looks great! Must have a bag full of money somewhere, I've been looking all over the place but have not found it yet...
Cheers!
