well it's not a 4-string, but it is buckeye, hopefully not outta your price range.  I was looking at this one when something more awesomer came along.  Guy's been holding on to it for a while FWIW.

since i've been getting older and my body's falling apart on me, i've become a fan of smaller-bodied basses.  these essences sit in one's lap quite nicely.

Appreciate you sharing! I do really dig that one, as well as the 4 string CME has listed. I’m just looking to go a little cheaper at the moment.
