Hannes.  If you're open to paying for shipping from the U.S. and import duties I have a medium scale 86 Distillate in Walnut that I'm selling. You can see pics in the for Sale and Trade Section of the site under Selling 86 Distillate and EB-3. The bass is in near perfect condition. The one thing a number of people have not liked about the look of the bass is the extension for a strap that a former owner put on the top horn. The bass is currently at my luthier who is going to remedy that with a more traditional strap lock.

Hannes:
 
Frets are in great condition.  Trussrod and electronics all work fine though I've only had to adjust the neck once in the last 4-years. Comes with OHSC and a new set of Alembic strings (It's got TI flats on it now but I know a lot of players like a brighter sound).  I'm asking $2,100 US plus shipping. I'll get the information on import fees and shipping tomorrow and PM you.
