I decided to re-string this bass this evening with a brand new set of Fodera nickel light gauge strings.
Cleaned the beautiful rosewood board with mineral oil. Set it up with super low action. And balanced out the pickups.
This bass plays and sounds exceptional.....I'm really considering keeping it.
