kinda forgot about this one.

if it sold for $7500 then maybe it's time for me to clean out the idle bass closet.   i got a 5-string fretkess essence and a 5 strink ark king deluke that haven't been getting much air time latelay now that royalty has come to roost in the BeenDown bass collection.

maybe i should ask $8k for the essence and $20k for the mighty MK deluxe?  see if i can prove the PT Barnum maxim.  again.  and again.
