MK Italian Hand Carved Electric Double Bass

Description

Handmade Acoustic EUB by MK Bass Italy. This outstanding instrument has a diapason (string length) of 96cm which is 37.7inches placing it between a 3/4Double Bass and typical electric bass. It was used for a number of years for gigs where my 3/4Double Bass was too large or unweildly (at festivals, etc.). It is in excellent condition (please see photos - there is one small ding in the Fretboard where stage crew knocked it over at a festival but it has no effect on playability.

This is a lovely Hand Carved instrument and an outstanding sounding instrument as well. It can be used without a preamp though I often shaped the tone with a preamp based on the venue.

No Silly Offers. Would prefer not shipping the item as cost would be considerable.
