Hey Tom just thought I would let you know I got the bass. I love it. My girl friend is a piano player, we are already playing some Floyd Cramer together. Its nice doing business with honest people like yourselves on ebay!!! I have had some bad experiences! You get two thumbs up from me! Thanks again, Dennis. If I need advice on the bass Ill be in touch. Thanks again.
We are a bargain priced brick and mortar bass specialty shop; we stand alone in handling every bass ourselves and offering professional quality setups to make these factory direct cheap basses play like expensive basses. We offer basic setups for $100 to get a bass playable, and complete or full setups for $275 to also dress the fingerboard and get your bass setup with a low pro quality action for whatever style music you play. We know what we’re doing to get a great bluegrass, rockabilly, psychobilly, orchestral or jazz action dialed in. Low low jazz setups require even more extensive work for a bit more money.
Special Clearance Pricing on this deep glossy black bass! Your bass will be setup with these red weedwacker strings on it, AND ADJUSTED FOR PROPER PLAYING ACTION - A $175 JOB!
Or you can get any of 19 other colors of weedwacker strings installed, your choice. These weedwacker strings gives a higher tension to the E and A than others which allows the bridge to be held more stably during aggressive slap playing, AND give a stronger unamped sound. I experimented with different kinds of strings and found a combination that gave best punch and volume, AND supported the bridge during hard slap playing!
Ships with red or bright green or any of 18 or more other colors (your choice) weedwacker medium-high tension strings installed as shown in pictures. Check out all the string colors available in the picture showing all 20 now available.
These are the hottest bluegrass/rockabilly strings going as they give authentic gut slapping sound, nice warm punchy sound with short sustain, and are EASY ON THE FINGERS!
These pull and release and generally respond very much like gut strings. Can't get closer to real expensive gut strings in feel and action AND Warm SOUND! I like this smooth feel under my fingers myself.
That's me, Tom, in the pictures playing and working on basses. You get REAL personal attention and customer service with us, we are tops and strive for your total satisfaction. Chris in customer service helps make that happen!

Most recent customer feedbacks on this bass with stock steel strings on when shipped: "Hi, Shane Chisholm here. I bought a bass through your ebay auction to go to Canada. After you trucked it up here I received a call from Buyers, my Canadian delivery transporter, so I picked it up instead of getting a home delivery. I gave the bass my own setup, added my choice of strings and a pickup and then hauled it off to a country festival of 70,000 people where I headlined with my Rockabilly Band. The Bass sounded great! This was the best deal I've ever gotten off of Ebay. Thanks for everything. Shane Chisholm"
"Tom, Bass is everything you said it would be. Sounds and plays beautifully. Thanks for going in on the shipping with me not many would do such a deed. Packaging was great, nothing but praise for a job well done. Thanks a bunch Mark Pruitt"

NOTE: Free Shipping to “Qualified* Commercial Address” in lower 48 States. We estimate that 70% of U.S. customers are within the “free commercial shipping” area. *A “Qualified Commercial Address” requires it to be located within 30 minutes, or so, of a major city, and not on the East Coast, New England or some upper Midwestern States such as North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. Much of these areas that are farther from us in California will only cost you an extra $25 or so freight; the more remote from our freight terminals are more. Contact us for exact quote to your place .
Shipping to a residential address is $45 more to any State as it takes special handling by the freight line like unloading it from the trailer and loading onto a smaller truck.
Comes with Padded Soft Case and nice French Brazilwood Mongolian Horsehair Bow with Pearlized insets. Never had a complaint or problem with one of these, and on the contrary I've had glowing praise of them! They are shipped in a double-walled VERY STURDY carton with interior styrofoam shaped forms to ensure it arrives to you undamaged. It's working very good too.
This is a quality student bass with no name brand in it. I get these cheaper by getting them factory direct without the major brand name that usually goes in it. You can't go wrong getting this one for a student or intermediate player. You can't beat the price for this with free shipping to qualified* commercial addresses, padded soft case, bow and a 6 month warranty against manufacturer defects.
Paypal.com is preferred form of payment; click on Paypal logo below to easily pay. The $45 residential shipping is automatically charged thru paypal checkout. Receive it at work or somebody's store to save the $45 if you can, the $45 will be refunded from your paypal payment upon proof of sending to a qualified* commercially zoned address.
Bass can be picked up here and save some money too, unlike every other ebay seller!
Pickup price is $589 plus tax with weedwacker strings installed. This includes the action lowered for faster more comfortable playing action. INCREDIBLE BUY!! Worth driving a few hours to get perhaps.
INCLUDE your PHONE #s for the Trucking Line to have to ensure fastest delivery to you. Just go ahead and send your cell and work #'s, home # too if that's where it will be delivered. If you are in California and having it shipped to you, add 8.25% sales tax onto the winning bid price for your grand total, ebay checkout will do that for you.
If your specific address requires some additional shipping charge not described above we will pass that charge on to you so we can keep our bass prices low low.
Don't give us a hard time about it, fair is fair. We can't sell at these super low prices unless we get additional shipping charges that come up to your exact address covered by you.
