The bass is very solid and the neck is perfect. The previous owner exchanged the original pickups for EMG soapbars himself and removed the preamp and eq leaving a volume and tone knobs and a 3 way pickup mini selector switch. He got an endorsement with another bass brand and almost sanded away the brand name but you can still see what it is.The bass has a very warm and powerfull sound. I am not asking much because I don't use it and it is too great an instrument to not be used.
