Nope.

But I AM still looking for a Typhoon fretless bass and a 5749 parlor.

Oh, and the red and blue Model #6 Contemporary Folk Classics and a Euro Classic (Deep burgundy bowl, walnut binding, 2 1/8" nut).

Yeah, I think that's it...

It may be the lens used, but that bridge just doesn't look quit right.

I was thinking the same thing - looks like the bridge is bellying severely, but it may just be the photo. Of equal or greater concern is the saddle; it looks very low in the bridge slot, possibly indicating the need for a neck re-set.

Short-lived. Done now. Conjectural, at best.

Not only did it appear to be bellying, someone has really sanded the heck out of the bridge ... the corner is really worn down. Maybe someone had the top redone by somebody OTHER THAN the mothership. Too bad. There's another really nice sunburst one up for sale on Ebay right now ... I'll post it on the For Sale board.
