Beautiful!

Wow, as the sayings go ... I'm glad that it isn't a 35 in scale.
What are you looking for in a bass that this doesn't provide?

Great price!

The funny thing is I can't even find any pictures of their headstocks on the company's website.

This is a cool bass but I can't tell if is is set-neck or neck-through. The straight-across line between the body and neck finish is a little strange...it's hard to tell.
