The bottom end must be very prominent as the neck pickup is right on the truss rod cover like one of my basses. Lovely bass my friend. I hope you have some great times playing music with it.

From one perspective, every one is a custom build! But this bass was specifically built for the dealer in Arizona, and the original owner registered it a few months later, so I suspect it was made for store display. kenner Junior Username: kenner Post Number: 35 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Monday, December 21, 2015 - 6:01 pm:    I'm sure you would guess that I have been steadfast in waiting next to the computer this whole time for your response.... so, thank you for doing so.... Side note, I learned that two of my friends in the Twin Cities owned it before I acquired it....
