Plus postage to Oz for me!
I just emailed 36 different music shops here in Australia to see if any of them happen to have one sitting out the back gathering dust .
There is One new Epi Explorer bass case in Oz
I got replies from most of the 36 shops but ended up with one guy who had one that he had never sold gathering dust out the back of his shop.
My mate Anthony has the bass in Sydney after he picked it up for me from the seller. He has kindly offered to build a case for it on the condition that I bring over some extra special wines in November when I will be staying with him for a mutual friends wedding. I'm in Adelaide (about 1500kms away) and said mutual wedding friend is coming to Adelaide on the 20th June so he is going to bring it over with him. Excellent deal from my perspective as long as Anthony doesnt make a big heavy crate of a case.
I have organised with the shop guy who has the Epi case that I will wait and see how this custom case turns out before committing myself to the $180 he wants for his case.
Is this actually interesting to anyone or am I just blabbing on irrelevantly?
