Some have asked why I am parting with Godzilla, and to be blunt, she has been collecting dust in my basement. Don't get me wrong i LOVE this bass, but it needs to be in the hands of someone that will play her! Not just in their basement, but on a stage creating amazing music! As many of you have seen (and played this bass) it made the rounds to all the NAMM shows for 3 years as a demonstration instrument, and used to encourage people to think outside their 4/5/6 string box. There is a whole world out there that seems to be ignored by bassists, and this instrument opened a lot of people eyes to the opportunities that await a bass player with an open mind!
Sale includes an Axe Handler ARC stand (solid body and Acoustic holders included!) / pedal board and case!!
