Fernandes Atlas 4X Maple board

Any of you play one of these?

I became interested in them about the time they went away.

If you have one, what do you think of it?

Hi, Just seeing this. I have one in CAR, and it's a very solid bass. The neck is great with better fretwork than came stock on my Fenders. It's a 1.5" nut width, but a pretty full carve. The tuners don't look quality, but it stays in tune like a champ. The bridge is okay, and I'll probably change it at some point.

The pickup is pretty crappy, and the switching doesn't change the tone at all with the stock pickup. But the instrument itself is solid. I bought a used Basslines and changed out the pots, and it sounds great. I really like the bass, especially for $165 shipped new!
