Sorry if this has been posted before. I know nothing about these. Not my thing, but different and nice looking

great grain, and exceptional color... like that substantial-looking bridge too... not seen one like that before...

Yep, all the reasons I posted it!

I believe these were made by the same Canadian makers that made Lado instruments That bass is in beyond excellent shape for its age. I remember seeing some of these in my time working at Sam Ash Brooklyn, doing repairs. Saw and setup a few Lados, and at least a couple of Odysseys. All very high quality basses.

The seller also has the Lado bass I posted here today.

That's Jose. He's a member here. I bought a Carvin 5 string from him a few months ago. His handle here is "zecacosta". I'm sure if anyone is interested in these basses you can contact him directly for a "Reverb Fee Free Price". That's what I did. (But he does live very close to me here in Toronto. So there was no border or shipping involved.) He's a super nice guy and easy to deal with.

Thanks for the kind words, J.C. greatly appreciated!

Yes, better price available to forum members and a small correction: Lados were made in Ontario by Joe Kovacic and Odysseys in British Columbia by Attila Balogh.

Best,

Is this the own our Andrew used to own?

So purdy.

Nope, Andrew found a local (B.C.) buyer that is pretty happy with it - right, Andrew?

I had an Odyssey custom built for me. I've posted about it before. Would love to know what happened to it. It was a series 600, top of the line, herringbone binding, and the built-in 6 band graphic EQ. If I could find it t the same time I had the funds I would try and buy it back.
