I gotta say, the Kahler bridge really is awesome on these things.  My Sweet Comfort Series II has the Kahler on it and it sustains for minutes not seconds.  Wish I could find a bar for mine though.  IUt's like a 10ft Bosendorfer with frets.

I'm pretty sure this bass for for sale at www.musicgoround.com a couple of weeks ago.  If the photos are current, it looks like it's still there.

That's the bass...and it's been for sale for months, not weeks. I talked to the manager in...August, maybe?...and he said it had been there for a while.
