No, no - you shouldn't have kept it! It has a great home now and, remember, it was destiny that sent that bass my way!
But yeah, that bass has gotten a lot of play time.

Hey jpeeze,
Please let us 34" scale players know how the 534 plays when you get a chance to play it for a while. Many of us are eager for this info!!
Hey jscott,
There has been a "534" floating around evil-bay for a while! Take a look. I just wish that I had 5 LARGE to float!! It looks like a very cool bass.
Later, KIrk

Here's my "new to me" 535. Ash body, walnut top, maple neck and bird's eye maple board. This is the one that has the enlarged "seeing-eye dots" on the side. Haven't played it out yet, but I expect they'll come in very handy on dark stages.
I was wondering about those dots! Had to re-read your post.
Kinda crazy but I can see how that can help.

Spectacular. That's a really cool take on the 'burst theme that I like very much.
I'd uh... Kinda like to hear that one as well.
Check it out. Our basses were completed consecutively. Pretty cool

bass12 said:Nice! Congratulations on the AG. Did you buy her (or him, since it's an AG) new?
Mike's website kind of bites. I was trying to find info on the AG, and finally discovered it was a Kingston by googling it. I also came across pricing for a US Saratoga, but it doesn't seem to exist anywhere else on the site. I'm tempted to offer to redesign it the site for him, though I honestly don't have the time.
I only had time to quickly glance at the page. What, aside from the custom colour and smoked chrome makes the AG different than a non-sig model?
