I took it for a spin last week. Plays great and is super light weight! The craftsmanship is stellar as is to be expected, but the tone wasn't for me(luckily, as I just sold a Fodera). Someone will be very, very happy with it though, likely sooner than later. Also- parkway is the best shop around. Got my first bass there 19 years ago, and still make a point to stop there whenever I can.
