Title: Darling short-scale Bass on Reverb, in Germany.

Price dropped significantly on this one is the only reason I'm bringing it up... that figured walnut was already enough to make a good dog break his leash.  ;D

That’s a great deal on an amazing bass. I have done business with this seller before. Great guy.
I sold him the Ziricote Further that he has for sale.
This guys stuff is mint. He has a lot of amazing instruments for sale currently including 3 mint Alembics, a Status MK headless and a gorgeous Santa Cruz acoustic.

That bass is so gorgeous! I love the top and the Darling shape.

Agreed!
Looks like the weight of the Darling is around 10.5 lbs.
I would have guessed that it was lighter given the smaller body.
Super cool bass!

Well, it's back up, only now it's stateside at least, but at a somewhat higher price tag.

Very cool bass. I love that shape. Apart from the Stanley body, the Darling and the Balance K are where I’d go shapewise if I was conjuring up a new bass.
