Holy Tone monster Batman!

This is technically a "used" bass, but damn, it is MINT. The pickguard still has the protective plastic on it even. :thu:

 

It figures I have to go out for dinner now. I'll come back later with a full report.

So I am about to restring it, and it has one of those hipshot Drop D tuner thingers. Anything I should know about that ahead of time?

 

 

Tune the E string, flip the switch, then re-tune the E string. After that, flip the switch again and check the tuning for the D (or whatever you're dropping to). You have to flip the switch back to the E position before tuning your dropped note. It should only take a couple of minutes.

Clips!

I'd love to know what those pups sound like!

 

 

The 3 way toggle for each pickup , plus a 3-way selector switch gives 15 possible switch configurations(and thus sounds), plus there is a tone knob.

 

I am just playing the same thing over and over while flicking switches to learn the sounds.

Man, I almost bought a used red 5-string version of that exact bass at a guitar show up in Santa Rosa right before I found my 'Ray...guy only wanted $850 for it, too....
