I'm pretty sure I've played one of these many years ago. It had 2 EMG pickups, though.
Great playability and craftsmanship and great woods. No C string low output syndrome and well balanced.
For this money, I don't think anyone could get a better 6 string.

I have several ppl interested. I would rather ship ConUsa so if no one commits today it may be headed to Belgium. This is a body from the bay but they now have an official website. For the money you can't beat it. I don't have any sound clips as I am having problems with Protools.

Congrats on getting married! I had to sell my one because our baby was coming. Funny how life changes often make for bass changes
