Also always interested in small body 74 or earlier Alembics. Thanks, Todd mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 416 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Sunday, December 27, 2009 - 8:01 pm:    Is John Judge's old bass still for sale???

Yes, the John Judge Dragon doubleneck hasn't sold yet, but Todd, you would be third in line, if you were seriously interested... Mike, how about you ? cheers, Christian toddharris Intermediate Member Username: toddharris Post Number: 143 Registered: 7-2008 Posted on Tuesday, December 29, 2009 - 9:17 am:    The weight of a double neck does not appeal to me nor having to switch between necks - cool to look at though. I am thinking about having an 8 string custom built though. mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 419 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Wednesday, December 30, 2009 - 4:08 pm:    I'd love to have it, but it would also be a "hang it on the wall and look at it" purchase for me as well. If the price were right, I'd jump all over it. But I suspect you are looking for 5 figures??? speicky Advanced Member Username: speicky Post Number: 397 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Thursday, December 31, 2009 - 2:01 am:    I'm pretty suspicious that I might not get six mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 423 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Friday, January 01, 2010 - 11:30 am:    Probably not, but if you want to Email me your asking price we MIGHT be somewhere in the same ballpark. Although I'd rather see someone have it that planned on actually playing it, I'd be estatic to own it. toddharris Intermediate Member Username: toddharris Post Number: 151 Registered: 7-2008 Posted on Friday, January 01, 2010 - 11:54 am:    Hey!

I waiited nearly a year for a used one to show up. A forum member found one in asia, but I did not go for it. I decided to have one built. you can see it at Ray's custom eight string, FTC, and in nearly an other year no others have shown up . If you locate a used one, don't hesitate too long.
