I'm start considering selling my Essence 5.
Has an upgraded Q-Switch added, for even more tone variations.
7 Maple laminates, Koa Top...etc.
Too many basses , I have a Distillate and a Series 1, both 4 strings.

I rushed to the bank where I was refused a loan, then my family offered to lend me some cash and I know people who would help me buy that bass (it would be bought by them and sent by the seller to a US address and then sent to me) but when I had the money it was already gone... :-(
