If anybody's interested in an Epic 5 string, I'm selling mine towards a custom 5'er being built. The Epic can be seen here:

It's Bird's Eye Maple/Purpleheart/Mahogany and has Essence electronics. It's in great shape, has very minor player wear that can only be seen on close inspection. It's a 9.5 out of 10. It comes with the Alembic adjustment tools and case, Dunlop straplocks and a strap. I'm asking $1000.00 with the buyer paying shipping and insurance. Thanks in advance for your interest.
