It is an exceptional deal in today's market for an Essence five. dannobasso Advanced Member Username: dannobasso Post Number: 388 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Sunday, October 29, 2006 - 4:50 am:    If I had the spare cash it would be mine. I have 2 and they sound and record beautifully. I agree its a great price. speicky Intermediate Member Username: speicky Post Number: 168 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Sunday, October 29, 2006 - 8:52 am:    WOW ! My Essence 4string has got a 5string twin sister ! I adopted her off of eBay about six weeks ago for USD 1.300. It's indeed an all-maple body...

Exact same bass as pictured above, price was $1200. Drop me an email in my profile if you are interested and I will send you store location & number (mom & pop store, took it in on trade.) I have no affiliation, I just like to see Alembics go to good homes. southpaw Member Username: southpaw Post Number: 88 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Thursday, November 09, 2006 - 3:50 pm:    Sold!
