I know these are hard to find, so for anyone in Europe that's seeking one, here's one:

OMG, love it.

And hate "local pick up only"

I have a 1977 Musicmaster with La Bella Deep Talkin' Bass Med. Short Scale, .049 - .109 Stainless Steel Flat Wound, 760FM-S and it's just heavenly to play...

If this was closer, I'd be oh so tempted to check it out... I guess I'm glad it's local pick up only cause then I can ignore it. :-)

Yeah, especially when it's in Europe. He's really hamstringing himself, there.
I bet he would cave if someone offered him enough. Everyone has a price.

Well it comes out to being in the $1800 range in USD, so he can keep it ;)
I do wish I could snag another Musicmaster. Sold one to a board member a few years back. I am an idiot.

Just as shitty and irritating as 'CONUS'. :mrgreen:

Guilty as charged on that one. But no shipping at all? That's a rough one, especially when you're selling lefty stuff.

Cool bass, but- if it's never been gigged, and stored for 19 years, why are there so many nicks and marks around the bridge, on the edge and back side, and a big chunk of paint missing on the lower horn? Looks like it's been gigged a-Lot!

19 years ago was only 1996. I'm guessing this bass was played plenty from 1975 to 1996.
