We haven't had anyone not buy the one made for them in the last five years, but our policy stays the same. Current Price: $17,500
Andy Stetson Basses
I am now able to take orders on the Prescott copy's I make here at the shop. I've been avoiding taking orders due to my not being able to predict the time of completion. The process has been streamlined and a consistent amount of time allotted daily for building. Current price $19,500.
