I literally got this out of the box 4 days ago... It is an insanely nice bass, one of the nicest I've played, but it just isn't doing it for me.

I need a bass I won't worry about while playing it.

Comes in lightweight case as well.

DOB: 1994
Mahogany Body
Bubinga top
Maple veneer

Ebony board
Alembic soapbars

Schaller strap locks (bass side only)

The sound is punchy, great B string, low action, great slap and fingerstyle sounds.

Overall in great shape, with some buckle rash on the back, a swirly by the strap button, string marks on the bridge and a small ding near the neck pickup.

I have lots of feedback on talk bass under the same username: naetog
