I am selling my beautiful tiger maple Essence 5 string bass in excellent condition.  It plays like a dream, sounds incredible (especially the clear low B), and has the perfect neck carve.  There are no structural issues, and cosmetically, it is very clean.  I am pricing it at $1650.00 for a quick sale since my credit card came and I forgot about something on there.  Comes with a gig bag, or I can supply a new Gator hardshell case for a little extra $.  I am in So Cal, but can ship anywhere in the USA at actual shipping costs.  Feel free to call me at 805-987-9020.  Trevor.  Email me at oib805@gmail.com for photos.

Sold something else so I can keep my Essence!  Consider it off the market?.thank goodness.

Whew! That was a close one!

I probably would have bought this one if it had stayed on the market another day or two. Give me a shout if the situation arises again.
