i think that's a great looking ax, and for the money: plenty to work with. i hope it plays well for you b-mac --- congratulations on your new instrument! :thumbsup:


Bridge pickups placement off
FWIW: i wouldn't worry about pickup/string alignment: all of those pole pieces create a field. if the strings vibrate in that field (as they always do!) the bass plays. ;)

Last week I had a Rondo Music newsletter in my email.
Some things were on sale. The
SX URSA 3 JR MN ALDER 3TS SHORT SCALE was one of them.
I’ve been interested in SX basses for a while and since it was on sale...

Fit and finish is wonderful. No visible drips, runs or blemishes.
No sharp fret ends. No fret buzz. Sounds great. Feels and plays great.
Markedly better than my uber cheap Glarry and Exquisite basses. Nice HSC too!
Just needed to raise the P pup a tad.
Overall I’m impressed with $179 price. Total with HSC and shipping was $303. Tax was not charged.
Ordered last Saturday arrived this past Wednesday.
Yay Rondo Music!!!:hyper:
Amazing how well-made they are for the price.
