Galveston

so, ive been thinking of picking a 8 string up...ash body, trans black, rw board maple neck, set neck etc...looks promising, but for the price...what the heck? 450 bucks? I know there have been past threads on these basses, but not really lately...

I can be okay with not the best quality of woods or pickups....anyways, my main concern is the neck....a set neck with 8 strings thats not high quality...will the neck start to warp or tear out of the pocket? likely? no idea what kind of glue they use or anything...kinda my biggest worrie...

input?
