Yeah, I figured the good ones were gone, but they still do pop up, that one is truly amazing, I'd have willingly paid twice what OP did, maybe more.

That is a really fine bass you got yourself there and I don't mean
just the condition.

The Patriot is a damn fine bass period.

Peavey Patriot + Fulltone OCD + Rotosound Swing bass 66 (40-100) + pick (0.60mm) + Focusrite Scarlett Solo = Pure gold and puking rainbows with glitter <3

Nice man, I like it, a lot.. and playing is great!

You can easily hear that strong mids and crunch on the top.
