Description
Founded in 1976 by Joe Veillette and Harvey Citron.
Only about 500 handmade instruments were built until 1983, of which about 270 were basses.
Veillette Citron’s instruments are highly sought-after, rare Collectors Items.
Kasim Sultan (Utopia), Rutjer Gunnerson (ABBA), and Van Halen’s Michael Anthony played Veillette Citron 8-string basses.
The bass can be played comfortably up to the 22nd fret, it sounds incredibly good.
Incredibly good, almost flawless condition.
