bari couesnon monople 1!!

[bbbouklas]

I got a couesnon monople 1 bari 6xxx with some bell issues and no neck in order to restore it....
could someone who plays one (or who knows about them) tell me what other kind of neck would work on it?? I am thinking of having paraschos or glogger make on
.. the option of a glogger in copper isn't that expensive since the monople doesn't reqire a key..
anything I should be particularly aware of? any ideas that I should pass on to my tech when I get it repaired?
setup?
thanx :)

it was an ebay purchase, and I think it is worth restoring. Not much seems to be damaged but I know there might be problems that I cant see from the pics..

I'm curious if you ever finished restoring this bari and how it plays.

I think you are the only human on the planet who has one of these ! :shock:

I am curious also what you did with it. I would have suggested Paraschos, only because you are in Hellas, too.

Other than that..just try to nail a loose neck with a close tenon diameter, and get a tech to work it from there.

That's a real iffy proposition.... because it'll probably require reuturning to the tech for further adjustments...but definitely, a Couesnon Bari...heck, that'd be worth the trouble, and money, to get a neck working on it !!!!
