So I really stumbled into this. I noticed that Adorama had it for $129. I went and played one at Guitar Center. Bass has always felt huge to me coming from guitar. I had seen it before and really loved the blue finish but originally thought this would be too small and feel like a toy. Tried it and it felt great and it sounded great. Guitar Center matched the price and got a new bass same day for about $140 after tax. Didn't need it but I'm very happy with it especially for the price! Now I'm just hoping I can find flatwounds that will fit it.
