Why do you want to send him to my competition?
Business is tough enough as it is.

Plus, he wont see a Bass Museum of great vintage Basses there like he will at my place, that's for sure. The education of Bass history here in my racks are worth the trip alone.

I sold a Euro laminate a few weeks ago to a HS Senior. Now he is preparing for his College audition. I gave him his first lesson on a Beethoven piece he has to play this past Saturday. Can you get that at Shanks thrown in with the sale?

I don't work by the hour!

Erik, if you're in central VA then you are close enough to Ken, so get over there. Don't bother with any other guys, just go straight to Ken - you'll get a bass history lesson there, and he'll probably throw in a free lesson. Ken's a friend of mine and I can fully recommend him!
