Additional Info and Background:

I’ve had this bass for a while and it’s served me well. The tonal versatility of this instrument cannot be overstated. With a small, yet impactful set of controls this bass allows for tone sculpting to any occasion. I have personally used this bass in rock, jazz, blues, and even metal gigs without being disappointed by its tones.

Aside from its tone, it is the lightest bass I have ever owned. Light basses can be prone to neck dive, but surprisingly enough there’s none with this bass!

So if this bass has so many amazing features, and is so comfortable why am I selling it?

Well frankly, I’ve gotten into fairly intense metal that demands the use of active pickups and a longer scale length. I’ve got basses now for such a purpose so I don’t play this bass as much. I’ll still sometimes sit down and play jazz standards or chord arrangements on this bass and remember just how much I love it. But I feel bad knowing how underutilized this bass is. It’s a phenomenal bass that deserves to be in the hands of someone who will play and appreciate and benefit from it. With many of the comforts of this bass, especially the weight and scale, I hope that it is a bass that can provide you with countless hours of comfortable shredding that it has for me.

If you’re interested in a video playing anything in particular or demonstrating it’s tones don’t be afraid to ask!
