What an epiphany!

I still kick myself for being too ill to see DKT-MC5 when they were here in 2004.

I fell in love w/ the Wilshire/Crestwood/Coronet body shape after first seeing it on a Radio Birdman album cover. I got a cheap late-model version and ended up giving the wreckage to a friend the day we packed up to move out west. Have since owned a couple vintage 'batwings' as collectors call them. I always sell them because the knobs are crowded up on the bridge, where I rest my hand. Then I forget, or think I can change how I play, buy another, and the cycle continues.

the price deniz paid was 120 US$... there is a guy in France who make incredibly accurately, make even his own pickups reissues...
