Custom Framus Cutaway Double Bass (very rare) 1950's Black

This stylish instrument is from the Framus company in Bavaria, makers of some fine classical string instruments and better know for a long line of exotic electric instruments that were used by the biggest stars of early rock n roll.

In the 1950s they made a successful line of dance band basses, played by the likes of Oscar Pettiford, and here is a (surprise) fully carved example in very good shape. A unique time capsule from the era!

A Mooradian standard travel (gig) bag included $365 value.

A fishman full circle pickup 1/4 20 $220 value

A set of Evah Pirazzi Double Bass Slap string set $322 value. As well as the set of strings that had been on it previously.

I have designated local pick up as a freight company would be required to ship. If you would like to make arrangements for a freight company to box and freight it I would discuss.

I also would be willing to travel up to 100 miles to meet up and deliver.
