SOLD - Bashkin OO-12 - £3,799
What's Hot
TRADES - Custom Shop Strat or Tele.
I'm selling this one as I have 3 other incredible guitars to keep me happy and I am planning a major holiday that I have been putting off for too long. The holiday is 18 months away so I'm listing this guitar now as I appreciate that it is a niche instrument and I may have to wait for the right buyer to come along. Trades are not an option.....unless it's for travellers cheques or yen!
The guitar is in wonderful condition with just one ding to the top.
And now to the eye-watering price. It's $11,900 by the time it arrives from the US, that's currently £8,305.99. Honduran Rosewood isn't cheap and it isn't easy to get hold of now because of CITES and there isn't another of these OOs in this spec' in existence. It's incredibly special.
There is just one other pre-loved Bashkin on sale this side of the Atlantic from which you'll see that my asking price is favourable:

I respect your taste greatly.
Which helps your sale not a jot, sorry for the intrusion.
The guitar remains as sublime as I remain fiscally bereft.
Guitar is lovely.
