Dude, if you don't keep this one, I'm gonna come to BRLA and cause you pain.

That is easily one of, if not the single most beautiful basses this shop has ever put in a case.

Plays and sounds killer too!

Beat down?



...remember, I'm the Gardfather, right?

Does the phrase "...leave the gun, bring the cannoli" ring any bells?

From the look of the wood combo it should have punch and attack for days, how is it sound wise?

Again beautiful bass.

I bought it used. I think it was new in late 06. I'm not nearly THAT patient!
