Up for sale is a Christopher upright bass with a solid spruce top and laminate flamed maple sides and back. Christopher and Shen basses are well acknowledged entry DB models. Please find detailed specs here (under the professional hybrid model): http://www.christopher-bass.de/dbass_e.html
I believe this bass comes with an antique varnish option which makes it darker than the example in the site. The busetto shape is an interesting contrast to the violin/gamba models. The solid top adds arco color and will be an upgrade for classical music from entry all-ply models.
Condition is good with the usual marks in an instrument this size. Comes with a bag and upgraded aubert bass bridge.
Price: $2,500 (nego for reasonable offers). If you buy from our local Shen/Christopher distributor Bassloft, you will not find a solid top hybrid below S$3k (this piece was bought nearer to S$4k).
Interested parties please PM me or Whatsapp me at 9six7three54oneeight to deal. Thanks for reading!
