Palatino VB-029 Bergamo Solid Hand-Carved Upright Bass + Carrying Bag, 3/4 Size

This great bass is new, but to help any buyer to cover the cost of shipping, we are selling it with a discount of over $1000.00 of the regular street price. The bad news is, we would like to sell this bass for pickup only and we do not want to ship it, so if you can make it to our store in Harrisonville, MO., great, but if not, it will probably be a fortune to ship to you. If you are local or if you have a way to get this shipped to you with less hassle for us, you can make a lower offer and we just might take it. The photos in this ad are stock photos because this bass is still in the sealed box from the factory, but if you think you want it but you need to see photos first, we can take it out of the box and photograph it for you.
