I have one, and it sounds pretty cool.

There is a bass just like that for sale at a local music shop. I dont know how much the man wants, But I know for a fact its no where near $1,000 prob. not even $500. :eyebrow:

I have played it, strings are so dead, but its got like a real thin and fast neck on it almost like a guitar, very different... it does sound good too.

I picked mine up at GC about 10 years ago for $300 or so...:hmm:
some basses sound good with old strings, but new strings are necessary with the performers... IMHO :D
