My Valenti just arrived !! and I am at work

OK. This thread is back, I have had this bass for 6 days and this what I can tell:

a) Construction flawless, every thing is perfect in this bass.

b) Finish , amwesome , I was not expecting something like this, when I opened up the case , my jaw hitted the floor.

c) I asked Nino to set it up with low action , and the action is really LOW, the lowest action I have ever played, not fret buzz at all.

d) Weight , I dont have a scale at home but I think weigth is almost the same as a Fender aerodyne that is the lighest bass I have played, something in the 7.5 - 8 pounds

e) Neck: excellent fret work, playability is great.

f) Sound, This baby will sing if you gently touch it and if you want to dig in it the beast will wake up and a loud GROWL will shake your soul. This bass has a very hot signal.

I have a Sadowsky and I can tell you that the quality is the same in all aspects, Nino builts high quality instruments within a razonable price. Also he offers all kind of options , basically you only need to tell to Nino what you want, the only thing that Nino did not offer and that I wanted to add to the bass is Brazilian rosewood fretboard.

Conclusion: This bass rocks , I got much more that I was expecting, very happy with the decision I made.
