do NOT use cheap tools to adjust with. they might break and scrape up your guitar...

One (new) is still available on Ebay Germany for 2049 Euros from a serious dealer... You should get one from THOMANN Shop too.

Shipping to you is no problem I think, contact the dealer first.

Greetings from Germany!

Thanks.
I think it's the most beautiful bass I've ever seen. I really want one, but I don't like the price Since it's only 50 made, I guess I have to decide quite soon if I want one or not, before they are all sold ...

The lowest price I've seen: 1,989.00 EUR. It's your decision, but should not take tooo long I think. The bass is worth every cent you'll spend, believe me.

If you are located in Norway, I think you don´t need to pay the VAT (taxes) for European Union (and Germany), am I right? So you can ask the German dealer to take 19% off that prices that includes the taxes. So you will pay around 1600 EUR + shipping.

you dont pay tax in the shipping country, so you can deduct the german tax.. but you have to pay tax in norway which is 25% (and tax is also added to the freight cost) so it still will be around 2k €...

...would be so cool, if there were even more guys, that own an Ebony edition AND do live in Hamburg/Germany (at least in a suburb) But two is quite a nice ratio, I guess, considering the quantity...

MrM, let me tell you: that bass is worth a lot more than 2k. And please consider: BassArt paid 2k as well although he's located in Germany (actually, I didn't pay that much ...)
I'm playing the bass for more than 17years now. So I checked out quite a lot basses, I can tell... When I first thought of whether to buy that bass or not, I wanted a second Humbucker on that bass. But as soon as I plugged that bass into my amp, it became clear that that bass simply doesn't need a second one as the sound is thick as a brick, round and warm.

my 0,02 EUR

Fabulous bass. The perfect bass.

Seems to me that most dealers would ship worldwide. So If someone wanted it bad enough I'll bet it could be had. I sold my Alembic to a guy in germany. Shipping via USPS was 149.00 in the case. If I had the money I'd be all over it.
