    Man I have wanted one of these basses for a bit and my first gig with my newly acquired XOTIC was not a let down at all. It is such a great sounding J5. The active pre does not sound harsh or fake...it just accentuates the passive J sound. I ran it through a GK MB800 into two Aguilar GS112 cabs and the sound was great. I need to restring it with some DR's but even with the half dead D'Addarios it sounded great. Had a great P type tone fro the neck pup... great barky Jaco bridge tone and the slap tone was purely delightful. Great great bass. Look forward to my next gig tomorrow night.

    I've been contemplating one of these. How was the B compared to others?
