Well, the time has come! This bass is for sale. I will update with the official specs soon, but here's the basic idea: 1992 4-string fretted Essence - 92 K 7248 Flame maple top w/awesome blue finish 34" scale 3-piece maple neck And some pics: The marks on the top of the headstock are into the wood and are pretty ugly, but luckily are not too visible from the front of the instrument. Also, there appears to be something loose in the wiring as the sound will cut out when the pan control is turned fully clockwise. Otherwise all is functional, and sounds fantastic. Some other eBay-savvy club members surely recognize it and know what it cost me, and that's all I plan to get for it. $815 plus actual shipping costs brings this bass to your door. Email me with any questions or offers at adaml84@nycap.rr.com. Adam |

Check to see if nut holding the pan control is loose and allowing the board to rotate when you reach the stop. If the solder side of the board contacts the conductive shielding paint, it will short out. I bet if you tighten the nut with the board clear of the side, you'll be in great shape. |

Update: Here is the info from the build record: 1992 4 string long scale Essence bass Flame Maple top maple neck walnut pinstripe maple body ebony fretboard chrome tuners brass hardware sold through Guitar Center Completed 6/19/92 (Thanks Val) I will wait a few more days in case any other club members are interested, but I need the $$ ASAP! My rig has grown considerably over the last few weeks and my credit card balance has grown accordingly. If there are no takers by Thursday (11/25), I'm gonna have to put her on eBay. Adam |
