Sorry,
But for that kind of cash I'd have to get a Classico or 5 string series axe.

Probably the Doctors, lawyers,...those people that have the cash to buy new instruments. Unfortunately (or Fortunately depends how you view it)I have to buy 2nd hand or 3rd. But I don't care! I really want a 5 string series though. I guess I'll keep visualizing that one though, it may to to pass!

Yikes!
Ok then! I remember looking at your axe and saying that I wish that I could get something like that! That is one awesome bass! You must be thankful of your blessings!
