Speaking of which, I wonder if the man who bought this magnificent bass will turn up here.  At 35" scale and nearly 14 lbs, who could wield such power?

custom body shape.... looks like a balance k w a traditional small standard upper horn?

The shape is completely custom, I don't believe we have made another with this same template. It predates the Balance K
