Incredible bass
The playability, the combination of those seymoor duncan PJ pickups and the slim Jazz style neck make this one a keeper

Great quality bass, sounds awesome with flats
Had this bass two or so years, the neck was strange at first, it's wide and flat, but eventually got used to it. Had it strung with some custom flat wound strings, can't remember the make and it sou ds killer with the p and j up full and tone all off. Gigged wih it plenty of times and it's a workhorse. Only downside is it's a bit on the heavy side for me
