LEJ 2 band preamp with passive tone control (Vol, Vol, passive/pull tone control, stacked bass & treble)

I wish I had a way of really hearing the tonal character and variations of the bass.
Visually I think it's stunning.

I don't have any sound samples, but I've compared with the sound samples on Lowendbasses.com and I can say this bass will go head to head with LEJs. I don't know why Bennys are valued lower than LEJ even though it's made by same luthiers. Tone wise it has LEJ pups and LEJ pres, so they sound very similar.
