Delivered yesterday and straight to rehearsal last night. So far I'm definitely digging the fit, finish and setup. Jury is still out on the tone, as I was playing through the practice rig in the rehearsal space. I have a gig next Friday so the real test will be with my gig rig.

I know that it doesn't have the 3 band EQ like my EBMM Ray 5, and also missing that 3 position switch. Still it gets a nice deep tone, with lots of bite. It weighs less than 10 pounds so that's a plus as well. The frets were nicely dressed with no sprouts.

I have to say that the finish looks different from certain angles with a green tinge to it. I kinda like it.

Stay Tuned...

Well I was able to play it last week at rehearsal. It sounded and felt great! Only problem was that I was playing through an old Acoustic 15, and I think it was lacking some definition. I have another rehearsal tonight, and I will be bringing my STM-900 and Fender Rumble 210 cab. Plus I have a gig this Friday, and that will be the real test.

Nice bass, are the strings still stock? I got a new bass and put different strings on it and the tone change was night and day.
