New Eshenbaugh Bass arrived today!

Thanks,

This bass is special. I must commend Mark Eshenbaugh for building it and for the superb cutomer support.

A local gospel bass instructor wanted to buy my Smith-5, but now he wants the Eshenbaugh. He asked if he can use it to record with this Summer. I have no plans of selling it; but the right trade [up]...;)

There's only one problem; I can't decide which strings to leave on it. It's more like having 3 basses in one (2 Fenders and a Fender killer). :)

Someone asked about the controls and I can't remember if I posted this pic or not:

I almost traded my old Thumb N/T 5'er for that very bass back when woodchuck had it. 'Chuck felt he could'nt do it at the time and when he did finally reconsider it I'd sold the thumb for custom building fee's. I REALLY regret not getting my hands on that one for a test run though now!!!!:bawl: :p :D
