Sept. 2001 Custom of the Month for Sale

I've always admired that bass. The side pic of the figured maple core absolutely makes me salivate.  The maple is so vivid that it brings to mind a term like, Ultimate, unsurpassed, radiant 'Alembrick'.  Best luck to you and the lucky new owner.

Speaking as the previous owner of this bass, I can say that it is stunning visually & sonically. (I even have a pic of Jack Casady playing it at a workshop :-)
 
Phil is as straight a shooter as they come - & this bass is so unique that it is hard to place an objective value on it.

I've never heard a short scale bass with the tonal authority of this one.

Please Mr. yggdrasil, post your pic of Jack playing this lovely bass.

[lidon2001]

Sorry for the derail, but how about a current pic of its pink ivory companion just for fun?
 
Good luck with your sale.

Sorry - but Jack is a very private fellow & I'd never do that without his explicit permission.(as much as I'd love to!- the unspoken code of Fur Peace Ranch)

Yes, you're right. What happens at Fur Peace Ranch, stays at Fur Peace Ranch.

I am, of course, willing to consider a reasonable offer for this bass.

[pbarsom]

New asking price of $6500.  It will go up on eBay within a couple of days.
