Another Unicorn - Spoiler 7-String Lined Fretless!

[garyhead]

WOW.....here's something that doesn't come up too often.  First thing I noticed was how small the truss rod cover looked on this bass.  Seems like a reasonable price too:

Was that one of yours Danno?

Is the seller here in the club?  Would love to avoid Reverb. I have a Conklin 7 that I love but I do like a fretless 7 opportunity.

I think so, Trevor Lindsey got it about a year ago:

They have more of his basses listed, might be on consignment?

FWIW i bought one of his (non-alembic) basses aboot 6 months ago.  if i didn't have to sit down for tomorrow's gig it'd be at the show with me :-(

Looks like it’s gone.

Yes it was one of mine and each time it passes on it increases in price.
I’ll be having a moving sale pretty soon so lots of geetars and basses and Phil jones amps and cabs looking for new homes. Oh, and pedals too.
I may just have what you need.

My bet is it will show up in Evergreen, CO

Hey guys, I pulled the sale because I just can't part with it.  Sold a bunch of other basses instead. 

[garyhead]

Well. You have a potential buyer here. I’m patient.  If you do sell, would be nice to “keep it in the family.”


And you can see…..I don’t have a Spoiler…..or a Coco Bolo bass.

The tone and the mwah are fabulous.
