Cool! It's always exciting whenever anyone gets a new bass.

Sorry for the poor quality... I'll get better pictures of certain parts if you ask for them.

Yep. The fishman really seems to keep the acoustic tone with minimal coloring. Of course, I only tried out once or twice so I'll have to see how it holds out when I start playing a band.
