LEFTY BACHBIRD (GIBSON NR T-BIRD CLONE) AQUISITION THREAD!

[andrew]

When will the basses be ready, aka when will you need to have the money for the bass?

[iome]

I can't tell how long it'll take, it took 2 1/2 years to make the first 10 basses, then they made another 30 in 3 month. I'll guess 3-4 month from the order, but we're not even close to the beginning yet.

Is this a dead issue? I'm finally at the point where I can say I'd like one, but looks like its been a while since anything's been happeninmg with this thread. An update?

[iome]

I'd say the moderator can cancell this thread, we didn't find more than 8-9 buyers......

[slybass3000]

I m in for one.

I'd do one too, and I wasn't on the list before. I can't believe you can't come up with 20? Maybe you need to take a fresh count ...

[andrew]

I think there's more people interested in this than it seemed, just that without clear details on cost/build time/delivery/options/etc., it was hard to pin down confirmed orders. I'm also interested in one of these-if it can be confirmed when the order has to be placed, etc. I don't think I'm alone in being hesitant to commit to buying one without knowing the plan for getting them.

[iome]

I'll try to get some more details from Bach and let you know.

Thanks!

I had also expressed an interest. It would be a shame to see this opprotunity fizzle but I agrew that the lack of concise details as to the ordering/committment, warranty/return process and build time/shipping details maybe the reason for the lack of interest.

Let's get definite info on the following;

Actual price
Options/ colors available
Build time once order is submitted
Warranties against materials/workmanship
Shipping; carrier, rates
Ordering/payment process

Once we have definite info on these issues there will probably be greater interest.
At least I hope so 'cause I'd sure like one of these!

Cheers!

I want one too. but i am in oz. have talked to Bach about this bass and his reply that the TH-1 should be finished soon. I am also chasing their PB-60 as a lefty none in stock at the moment.

[iome]

I have contacted Roman, but all he told me was that they are very busy now we're close to Christmas and we'll have to wait untill next year, thats all.... I did ask for more details but got no answer

Thanks, we'll have to try to revive this in 2010.

[Pro Stock John]

Interesting. Depending on price, I could get interested.

I've heard they'll have a new run of righties ready at the end of january (2010 )

[iome]

http://www.bachmusik.com/en/ some news from Bach, they are now making the bass in 2 pickup version and in 2 new colors... Nice..

[andrew]

I'd like to see the Dark Honey Burst finish.

[Carmine]

I would take a Transparent Red 2 PU ASAP! (...but given the pace of this thread I'm not holding my breath, although the wait would certainly be worth it if it ever happens...)

[iome]

DAMN! This is nice. http://www.bachmusik.com/c211/model-th/
I think we should seriously start making a list to se how many really want this bass.
I must ask them, if we can gather 20 buyers, if the price is still the old one (160€), they said so last time.

[iome]

They've told me to let them know asap what color we prefer, didn't mention the price but if we are 20 it should be lower than the official price. Who's in?
