Bought mine used here on TB 4-5 years ago, still works great! Mine is installed "upside down", i use it with a Fishman Platinum Pro preamp.

I switch from upright to bg for drop D songs when the band leader is tuning. And only on gigs with a drummer, which like 10% of gigs rn.

so you're running 4 of them?

Great sounding/playing bass! 2011 model Fender American Standard Jazz Bass V. Black/Maple with original Fender hardshell case and original Fender strap. I added the S-1 switch and black pickguard. Still have the original pot and white guard. currently strung with a newish set of D'Addario...

My first real bass was (is?) a MIM Deluxe P-Bass Special (passive) from around 2000 and 19 years later it's still my favorite bass guitar. Currently on it's third set of pickups, Aquilar '60s voiced pickups can't remember the model number. Still love it. Currently strung with D'Addario Chromes...

Pretty good, not as echo-y as you would think. I turn off all reverb in the mixer when we play there. Crowd noise can get loud if there is a big crowd. but I don't think anyone has any problems hearing us. Always get compliments on the sound there.

I've always wanted to post a gig story from this place but I never remember to take enough photos. We play here multiple times every summer and it's always one of my favorite venues. This band plays traditional country and it fits really well with the 'ambiance' of this place. Just a cool unique...

I haven't had a chance to play with it much recently. Bass is actually in the shop at the moment. Was yours doing something similar before it was repaired?
