2024 Rubner 5 String Double Bass

This is a 5 sring double bass made in 2024.   I would describe this as a new  but DEMO bass as I  have been gigging on it.    MAP is supposed to be  $12k, but with  a bit of gig wear I'm listing it at $10,995.   I have played Beethoven 9 , Swan lake, some Frank Zappa  music and several jazz gigs on this bass and t doesn't disappoint.  While it looks like it has Thomastik BelCanto strings on it don't be fooled, these are actually pre-production Thomastic Infeld T.I. strings and they work very nicely for pretty much everything I've thrown at it with the exception of slap bass for which they are a bit on the stiff side.  This bass has a relatvely petite neck for a 5 string with pretty much normal bridge spacing.
