Guys and dolls… This is a rare opportunity for you to make your upright bass a very nice classic.
So keep reading this because it’s extremely important.
First thing I need you to do is look at all the pictures. I’ll be pointing at things such as where the cracks are on the neck and the missing tuner handle… Stuff like that. Everything I see, I will point at however this will arrive exactly as pictured as is as found.
Something very nice about it is the tuners… They are definitely heavy patina but all of them spin nicely with the handles and they feel very nice and the hardware feels like it is working fine. I’m not an expert so if there is any adjustments that the hardware needs that will be up to you as is hardware. It is clearly marked with the makers mark and it has some nice etching. That’s hard to see but still nice. Imagine this hardware attached to your full instrument. You’ll be so glad you got it.
And look at that nice swirl… That looks beautiful.
Make sure you look at the fret board. There’s a little Nick on the side that I will point at.
I think regarding the neck… You’re definitely going to have to do restoration on the cracks. They look like clean cracks so maybe you could re-glue or something like that, but they are as is as found. I’ll take close-up pictures of the cracks.
I have the perfect shipping box for this ready to go… Of course I will pack with care. I’ll protect all that hardware very nicely.
I’ll also be accurate with shipping. It’s a pretty long item and sometimes that gets expensive but I’ll be accurate and I will search for the cheapest price which I know is going to be FedEx so if you have a POSTOFFICE box, you might have to edit.
OK… I think I described everything… Make sure you look at every single picture because I haven’t taken the pictures along the way yet and I’m searching for everything that you need to see to make an educated decision so looking at the pictures is very important. I’m hunting flaws . That’s my goal.
I will weigh the item to make sure I’m accurate with shipping and I already know the size.
I’m telling you for your own good… This is a rare opportunity to take advantage and get this item. It will make your instrument look fantastic with that hardware. So think about it and bid. This is rare hardware.
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to reach out. I think I covered it but one more time… As is as found exactly as pictured as described. Packing with care. Accurate shipping. Thanks, John.
