Thank you. I owned your bass for a while.
I still have two more Walnut P Specials and a Walnut Elite P & Strat

Great basses, (I have one too!) and as M5 says, the description of rare. I was the guy who discovered Keyster's bass was the catalog model. I was THAT close to picking that one up, but I s'pose one's enough. BUMP for a real collector's item!

I'm not usually a fan of non-standard P-basses, but that is super nice.

Those are *gorgeous* basses. Alas, I don't play 4's.












Well, that and I have no money for a new bass.
