In fact I contacted Brooklyn gear who confirmed that they had no stock.

I ordered my bass in six weeks ago and deeply regret that I did not spend a bit more and go for a Sadowsky as I have found Brooklyn gear woeful at supplying their dealers.

George, I find it disturbing that you joined up just to complain.

Why you joined Ken's Corner:
To Comment On the KSD proto Bass

This is a Bass I designed, not made or sold by or thru us. Also, Brooklyn Gear is in the process of changing factories in order to maintain quality. Please understand that business is not easy in itself and your Post does not help in any way either. Go over to TalkBass.com and read Adam's reply (BG owner) on what is going on with the Basses. Do a search on KSD and find that recent thread from last month. Post #89 here.
