I think the photos are higher resolution. This one's a real beauty. A bit too big & heavy for this boy, though.

This was on their website a while back at a Much Higher price.  The Bass Shop is owned by a former owner of BassNW.  A mecca in the 1990's - 2000's for bassists in the Seattle area.  All my Alembics were purchased from them.  I might have to make a trip up there...will take my motorcycle tho.......because the Van is big enough to fit that Dragon Wing!
Where are we going...and why am I in this Handbasket?

looks like somebody snagged it.  i'm re-vamping my amplification elsewise i might probably made a play for it  woulda made a play for it.


nothing but good things to say about BNW and the people who worked there.  3 or 4 of my alembics and stienies came from there.  met steve fossen (one of the bass heros from my mis-spent youth)  when he worked there.

That's a great bass. What is the electronics package?
