PU toggles and series/parallel switch functions:

Towards player=on.

Series 'on' allows you to have both in series or turn off the bridge PU. Trying to turn off the neck PU does...nothing.

The tone and volume knobs seem to preceed the switch into the EQ as the tone works in both active and passive modes, and the taper is the same in both modes.

The EQ is boost only.

 

Very useful. Throwing it in series and turning the EQ on with the bass up a tiny bit or flat and the highs up around half way or 70%ish=awesome slap tone.

Tastes like awesome.

 

I'd probably put lighter wound PUs in it to make the series mode more useful.

however, I'd need to spend more time with it.

 

it was in kinda by accident.

It was red(nice. Not metallic), and a guy had spcial ordered black.

OK speak some English.

 

Did you like it or not?

How did it feel? How was the neck?

 

Why did the bridge suck?? Looks like the standard Fender bridge to me.

 

How about the block inlays, are they nice? Well made?

 

Is it a string through the body or top load bridge?

 

This is a MIJ bass right??

 

I am getting GAS as I write this ....... so, tell me more, tell me more. :confused::thu:

Ohhh you're not the only one. I can see the bridge sucking since its a standard stamped bridge. I guess its nothing a $30 Gotoh bridge cant fix.

I'm not really into 4 strings that much any more, but I dig these things.

 

The neck was...really nice. How would you describe it Lug?

 

Kinda v-ish at the nut, and very rounded on the back but felt narrow...

 

If they made a 5 string, it'd be on layaway NOW, and I'd be trying to find a high-E tuning peg that wouldn't look hilarious(I play VI type instruments whenever I can, in fact I'll be modding the heck out of an SRX505 soon. Barts, additional tuner for the low E...)
