    ***NEW*** Schack 5
    Here we have a rare  bass from luthier Andy Schack ( Germany ).
    Mr. Shack builds a small number of basses , but his main business is as a  supplier of fine woods to builders in Europe and beyond.
    ( It is my undrestanding that he is no longer building basses ) .
    This neck-through 5 has a top that I cannot name - any help out there ?
    Madrone Burl , perhaps ?
    We can see clearly that the Flame Maple in the neck and body is very highly figured.
    The 9 piece neck is Maple with Bubinga runners and binding, the fretboard is Macassar Ebony.
    The scale is 36" , but I did not know this till I actually measured it - it plays effortlessly, and the B is gigantic.
    The pickups are by Basstech , and the preamp is Shack's proprietary 3 band : each band is semi-parametric  with cut/boost and sweep. Sweet !!
    This bass is in very  nice shape, showing only very minor finish checking upon close inspection.
    This bass originally listed for over$6K here in the States - we offer it to you , with gig bag, for $2,400.
