Pros: Wicked looks, decent sounds
Cons: Too pointy, Neck heavy, all around uncomfortable, case

Ever since I started playing bass, I had always wanted the Beast. I mean lets face it it looks AWESOME!!! When it arrived I sat down and played it and got stabbed, bruises all up my legs. Put a strap on and played it but it started to hurt my wrist.

The big headstock is BIG and falls straight to the ground.

Needs a strap button on the neck, but I'm scared to do it because of it being Neck through.

It has decent sounds, especially after the bad wrap I had heard about BC Rich. I'm going to fix it with some Emg's or Bartoloni's.

I am still waiting for them to get a case in that will fit it. I could either get a custom coffin case or a BC Rich hardshell case. No chance of this fitting in a normal case.

If you want a bass that will make jaws meet the floor with a sudden thud, this is it. Decent all around. Stupidly heavy not for people built like twigs.
