Mario Guitars Serpentine Bass w/ Gig Bag (2023 - Sonic Blue Relic)
One of the best playing short scales you have ever played guaranteed.
As many of you know, and a lot of you don't, Mario Guitars is my alma mater in a way. It is where I cut my teeth and learned all I know about the boutique and modern gear markets. Coincidentally, I also believe that Mario Martin, and his team (Shout out: Tim, Shannon, Ryan, James, Colin, Cade, Rex, and the boys) are some of the most talented luthiers on the planet. I have yet to play a modern boutique F-Style vintage recreation that comes anywhere close to the caliber of work and attention to detail as the Mario Guitars line. (Plus I recently just bought myself yet ANOTHER Mario...you could say I am a fan) So, for all of these reasons, it is with great honor that I can now call myself a licensed Mario Guitars dealer.

There are only three of these in the world, and I currently own two of them -- this one and the one that I keep in my personal collection. I based this one on my personal model, sans the color, they are more or less the exact same spec.
Comes with a branded deluxe gig bag and a hand-signed certificate of authenticity.
