After gigging this bad boy for a couple months I figured it was time for a little update.
 
Oh hey!  Guess what?  It rules!  
 
It's done every gig, rehearsal, and recording session since it arrived at my door.  I could not possbily be happier.  I'm quite positive my other Essence is feeling ignored and my Rogue jilted.

It's a beauty, just wondering - is that flame maple as the core of the bass versus it being a laminate?
