Fibenare 10th Anniversary 5-String Globe Bass #2 of 10

***This bass was hanging in a music store for a couple of years and has since been in a case for the past 6 years. It is in very good shape. It has some slight shop wear on the top but it is very minor. There is an area on the top where the lacquer has sunken a bit and you can see it clearly in the last three photos. It almost appears as a dent but it is just absorption of the lacquer. It is not very visible and only from certain angles but it is important to mention it.***

***It just had a pro setup and everything works perfectly.***

In 2008, in celebration of 10 years in business, Fibenare released an extremely limited run of 10 10th Anniversary Globe Basses. This is #2 of 10.

The Fibenare 10th Anniversary instruments were sold at $7,500, but since this has been sitting in the case for several years, it is being offered at this price.

From a Hungary-based company that's been wracking up heaps of accolades in recent years, this Fibenare Globe Bass is #2 of 10 that the Fibenare company built for their 10th anniversary--and they spared no expense. The solid body figured alder body is adorned with a gorgeous Poplar Burl top, and features their proprietary Fibenare Vazul pickups. It is lightweight and a dream to play. The controls and EQ make this an extremely versatile bass.
