Title: Essence 4 (new to me!)
Post by: nosimplehighway on January 09, 2018, 10:51:37 AM

Fex Ex just dropped off this beauty! An Essence 4 ser#94K8468. I found it at Willcutt guitars in Lexington, Ky. I'll have more pics after it's warmed up from the trip, and after I've had a chance to warm it up!  :)

Or as an afflicted one who now has 5 would say..."people tend to gather Alembics."

The truth is that because Alembics don't have arms or fingers so they need capture the minds of humans then use their fingers to play their music message and the more humans they capture the more the message gets spread so the more people want to buy them.  Straight forward really.  ??? 8) :o ;D
