You haven't tried anything till you've plucked a virgin.

The Virgin 4 bass is a nice piece and a rare bass last time BCR made a virgin bas was bout 15 or so years ago before this one came out and they haven't made another since. my only complain about this bass is not a fan of the neck ant pantied but i do like the matt black finish on the body.
