CARVIN LBDG6
PROTOYPE FRETLESS BASS BUILT FOR DANN GLENN
This is a real unique piece of music history as well as one of the best 6 string fretless basses built.
PERSONALLY AUTOGRAPHED BY DANN GLENN
(NOTE- This is the only bass in existence with Dann's autograph)
This MINT CONDITION Hi-End Carvin Custom shop bass was built for Dann for a potential signature/artist series line of basses. It is based on the LB76.
The story behind this bass:
Shortly after receiving this excellent instrument, Dann sustained an injury to his hand and subsequential surgery forced Dann to put down the bass guitar forever. While convelesing, Dann went back to his first instrument - Electric Guitar.
With 11 major releases on bass, Dann decided to permenantly change his instrument of choice to guitar and is working with Fretless legend Percy Jones on a new CD due out in 2008.
I got this bass directly from Dann in 2005 as an addition to my personal bass collection. I unfortunately have to part with some of my collection.
