Wow,that costs WWAAAYYY more than the Edwards models! This one is about $2300! Would a mint Gibson RD Artist even go for that?

Still, I like it a lot!! ;D

No a mint RD would be at the most $1800


what's the point of this bass?

No exceptional electronics, just a custom model I guess?

Looks great in white though.

Unless we're looking at different links, XE(http://www.xe.com/ucc/) converted it to about $325 USD. That would make it a bit over $400 USD(325 + about 110) shipped to my doorstep.

I would do that ;D

But I have to say that I liked this bass much better when hung in front of the cute asian female bass player :o

Maybe I used the wrong money converter? Yeah at that price it seems like a deal!!! A deal that I would like to have, but no cash right now.

No longer showing on their "public" page. Somebody got it on hold or bought it.

The bridge lets it down. It would need something fancier/state of the art.
