Wow. Just. Wow.

I've always had a thing for the ESP Basses from the 80's. But, this bass here? It just seems to take it to a whole new level. Check it out......

It's beautiful.
It is beautiful, though if aesthetics are you are interested in, then don't say "WOW" - it has a $14k price tag so you should expect it.

IF you need more "WOW", there will be another exotic out tomorrow - hang around.

Interesting, but at that price we're in Fodera territory and I hope we're not going to start comparing ESPs to Foderas. Oh wait, this is Talkbass, someone will come along and tell me no one should ever spend more than $400 on a bass and Squiers are just as good as an "overpriced" Fodera. Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving.
 
The cool thing about the ESP Streams is that they come in every price point (and quality to match). The auction bass was handmade in the custom shop in CA. They have a second line made by ESP in Japan and an entry level bass from Indonesia. I've played the middle two; they're definitely not equal to each other...but even that bottom of the line model is a nice, punchy bass.
