It’s a nice bass but I have reservations about it belonging to Entwistle. His son auctioned all his stuff at Sotheby’s after he died. Could be whoever got that bass at auction is selling it? Hard to say without a s/n.

Funny, the description says "five string bass...". It also says "SOLD Please contact us to purchase". Uh.. OK?  :o ;D Mahogany body. I'll check the Entwistle book to see if it's in there.

Oliver, thanks for providing your old link, cool basses he had.  Looks like he had two very similar darker standard point Zebrawood bssses.  Very nice!
