I would love to spend a little time on an MK5 before buying one. Thanks in advance! jim777 New Username: jim777 Post Number: 10 Registered: 10-2012 Posted on Friday, October 05, 2012 - 8:10 am:    I ust realized that I put NE as in 'North East', but it is likely to be seen as Nebraska. Sorry! stout71 Member Username: stout71 Post Number: 86 Registered: 7-2011 Posted on Friday, October 05, 2012 - 8:46 am:    I can't answer your question directly, but I recommend searching out some folks here in the club that may live close by. They would probably be happy to let you sample their wares! sparechaynge Member Username: sparechaynge Post Number: 74 Registered: 6-2010 Posted on Friday, October 05, 2012 - 9:48 am:    Guitars or Basses? In CT we have Brian's Guitars, and they always have 2 or 3 Alembics in stock. No basses or accessories though, which is a bummer. jim777 Junior Username: jim777 Post Number: 11 Registered: 10-2012 Posted on Friday, October 05, 2012 - 10:35 am:    Basses, thanks. I am thinking of going for one of the Balance K MK 5's. tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 1529 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Friday, October 05, 2012 - 2:02 pm:    Looks like the closest dealer to you is Washington Music in Maryland. There are a number of club members in the area and they had a get together a few years back. I bet someone in that group has a Balance K 5 stringer and might be willing to meet you someplace and let you check out their bass.
