Contrabass/Upright Bass Oriente (Oriente) HO20

This is an Oriente HO20 double bass.
The top is solid wood, and the back and sides are plywood.

There are many scratches, but
the instrument has a solid construction and a round back, which contributes to its soft and rich low-end sound.
It appears to have been modified by a previous owner, possibly a rockabilly musician, with the higher frets shaved down. This might make it challenging for those seeking a wide range of tones and playing styles. I am listing it for sale for anyone who can appreciate it in its current condition.

The position marker stickers were applied when purchased and can be easily removed.
The string height is around 1cm, which is on the higher side, but this may also contribute to the low-end sound and resonance.

The Oriente HO20 is characterized by carvings around the body, but
on this instrument, the top has been carved more deeply and modified.

Shipping double basses is difficult and expensive, so
this listing is for buyers within Okinawa Prefecture only.
Delivery is possible by car.
The price has been adjusted accordingly, but due to the high value, I would prefer for you to inspect it in person before purchasing.
The included soft case has some wear on the internal padding but is still usable for instrument protection.

*If you require shipping outside of Okinawa Prefecture, please arrange shipping and cover the costs yourself. This will be accepted only if you agree to no returns.

Thank you for your understanding of the above points.
