That burst is just beautiful I hope Roman emails me back... The headstock shown on their site looks like it's been redesigned to be slightly smaller. Should help the dive a little bit.

Good to see they're back!  Still a very nice price for them (conversion via Google):

7698 Czech koruny = 417.485634 U.S. dollars
7698 Czech koruny = 295.335055 Euros

Rob,

Can we order thru you?

The red one is making me very wet  :)

Yes you can.
Although I have no idea which company I should use to ship at an affordable rate.
The problem is that the BaCHbird is huge.
I'll have to go figure that out.

 Wet ? That red one is making me hard :o Would it be best to order through you Rob ? Does it help you in any way ? What are the IIs going for ?

It's not necessarily best to order through me Scott. I'm pretty sure BaCH will do an excellent job.
But yes, it would help me a bit since I'll be making some profit if I sell them.

Still waiting on BaCH to mention their price to me. (tomorrow maybe?)

What's the best way to get in on the new batch, PM or just post here?

Rob, if they're going to give you a dealer price (and the current price is close to what you'd also sell them for), I can't see why any of us wouldn't order from you. I'll wait to make inquiries until you figure your end out. I don't think I can afford more than one this time but I'm really liking that burst II...

May I just say once again that I love this place!

I want a lefty, now!  >:(
If i'm not wrong, Rob, the top is in maple or alder, it's metioned somewhere in the Bachbird refinishing thread.

Yes that's what I'm aiming for George.
They do give me dealer prices on their basses. I've been reselling a few BaCHs lately.

I'll keep y'all posted

Yeah that's what we discovered  when Joe stripped his BaCHbird.
But I figured BaCH would not choose to use a maple veneer on the transparant colours. As it would be quite obvious.

BaCH told me they're working on a lefty batch.

Look forward to your update!

It looks like the red one is available as a II and IV and the burst one is a II only.  By the looks of the site, they're back in the previous colors as well.

Is that the case, Rob?

Basvarken

Yes that is correct George.
But I do think they also made the tobaccoburst (or honeyburst as they call 'em) in TH-2 (two humbuckers).
