Hi Ken,
Im shopping around for a big bass and ive got my eye on this Hawkes

But this bass is particularly intriguing...

Its very beautiful, has had a lot of restoration work gone into it and sounds pretty punchy on the video he made. Trouble is, i have no idea about the quality and value of Gerbruder Schuster basses. Seems like quite a bit of money for a German, but it doesent appear to be the average factory model bass. Could you give me the low down on Schusters and your thoughts on this bass? Hawkes are pricey, but we all know that. This Schuster priced accordingly?
Any advice/thoughts, very much appreciated.
