Hello all!

I'm putting my MK signature deluxe 5 up for sale on Reverb, as well as here. I love the bass, but my arthritis has limited my ability to play like I used to; so frankly this bass is overkill for the music I'm capable of playing now.

https://rvrb.io/2004-mklb5-gmulf0

Here are the specs.  One reason I wanted this particular bass was the slightly crisper tone of the maple body wood, instead of the more common mahogany. The Alembic Club site limits attachment size, so more pics of the bass are on Reverb

I already reduced the price on Reverb, and it's now $10,497 with two bids declined, and a counteroffer pending. Of course, that site charges a hefty fees, so if you make me a close offer, send me a PM and I'll consider it.

Super nice bass. That sure looks like mahogany body wood (with maple accents).

I know, right? But the build sheet stated otherwise.  I just added a pic of it

I've reduced the price further here to $9497, as Reverb charges a hefty fees, so if you make me a close offer, send me a PM and I'll consider it.

Bump - Last chance for this if you want it, for $9000 FIRM. 

I have an offer pending on another site that is actually higher, but calculates slightly lower with the fees factored in. So, if there are no takers at this price by 10 AM tomorrow to stop me, I will accept it.
