If you need some one to test one, you can send me one. LOL

I am with you Peter! I did listen to the videos particularly the one with the fretless. Player was very good but the sound of the bass was excellent.

Interesting take on the headstock style as well. I don't know much about the double ball system never having own one but it sounds good...just wish I could play one.

Cool stuff Quadzilla!

Hi Mark.

I am currently at work where I have zero access to video playback.

That is why I think they should send me one of each just to try.

Cool stuff indeed.

If it were mine I would send it to you immediately for your professional opinion but ..... it's not mine :-)

Most of the high end boutique shops I frequent are leery of the hand made shop instruments. Not because of any design or quality issue, but rather the overall costs usually associated with those. The shops I deal with typically don't want to carry anything that runs over say $3500 US because they can't move them fast enough, and also there can be import issue depending upon the woods being used.

That said, one of the better high end boutique shops in the New England area of the US is The Axe Palace.

I've talked to the owner, Nick, about carrying Oni guitars and the like, so I know where his price points are. I bought my mojo from him, and a bunch of other stuff.

Thank you Billy for the suggestions,
I will contact it and see if interested in this kind of basses.

Thank you very much for your kind help

A friend of mine has a shop for boutique basses in Singapore. Those basses look like they might be a good fit. You can find him at: http://www.facebook.com/bassfreq.sg http://bassfreq.com.sg/

I have to say that in China, there are not so many boutique basses. It will be hard to find a vendor here.
