Looking to buy an MK with the Balance K Body style if anyone has one available.

4 string or 5?

Have you ever played that body style before?

If not and you want to try one before you buy, I live in the Dallas area, not looking to sell mine but you're welcome to come by and play it.

I really like the Balance K body.

smuprof,

Take a six pack of IBCs to Olie's. A cautionary word: you won't want to leave his music room. That's what he calls it, but in reality, it's a trap for the unwary bassist, more akin to Odysses' sirens....go and see and have some fun.

Mike, you make me sound like the Pusher.

(BY the way how's the you-know-what working out).

Olie, Olie, Olie I'm just doing my best to widen your circle of friends...

(the-you-know-what is working out just fine. I'm taking it back for another run...)

Jeff - Hmm, key piece of missing information - I'm looking for a 5 string

Olie - I played one at the factory last fall and fell in love - I have an Distallate Exploiter 4 string which balances very well, and I really liked the feel of the Balance K I played in CA. Having said that, I would really enjoy the chance to check out the music room, pusher's den, siren's island, etc.

Hey, is it pushing if I'm already an addict?

Olie, the office is at Spring Valley and the Tollway, I live up near Legacy and the Tollway. Send me an email at jterry@churchillterry.com if you're serious about letting me play with your toys.

MK 3/4 link

olieoliver · « **Reply #13 on:** December 17, 2006, 06:04:06 AM »

That's actually a 3/4 body Normand not a Balance K, BUT I'll add John that I like the way my 3/4 body feels better than the Balance K.

inthelows · « **Reply #14 on:** December 17, 2006, 04:50:16 PM »

Yes olie, hence the 3/4 link. Just haven't been able to look up many, I should say any balance k at all. They must be popular enough so that people don't give them up often.
Anything happening with craigslist anybody know?
