If anyone wants to try the instrument I'm based in Kilmainham, five
minutes walk from the Rialto Luas stop.

The website for the British luthier that made the guitar is:
www.zootbass.co.uk (click through the Bass Merchant till you get directed
to the old Zoot site). This bass is the 'Chaser' model.

might be worth throwing it up on Ebay perhaps

 

[alansan]

Yeah I think you're right Wicker. I'll leave it up here till next week and if no-one's interested I'll do just that.

It seems to be very difficult to sell instruments in Ireland that are not a mainstream American brand. I think it's kinda short-sighted.
