Does anyone know whether dots on TOP of the neck/fingerboard are a standard feature? I am not talking about the main fret dot markers on the face of fretboard but rather, on top of the finger board

Yes every MTD that I have ever owned has had the dots on top of the board. Mike’s latest are a Luminlay material that can glow on a dark stage for greater visibility.
Its been a few months since I played one, but I believe this is correct.

Thanks, and maybe I'm reading it wrong, but what about the second switch? Is it for the mids like on the 535, etc?
switch for each pickup. and the volume is a push pull too. passive active switch.
Got my Super 5 today.
Oh...My...God
I've been playing for 15 years and this is the best sounding, most well-built bass I've ever touched. Blows the Sadowsky I briefly had out of the water in every way.
Pictures and more thoughts after a few days, as long as we get some sun for some decent pics!

Hi
Just got this back by trade. This is sooooo versatile bass.
What do you cats think about the gloss vs standard satin finish?
This is the top:
I like the satin. Gloss might be a bit nicer, but big upcharge. Hmmmm.....

Amazing top! I actually prefer the standard satin finish on MTDs.
in general, i personally prefer the satin except possibly for quilts and maybe flames (to accentuate the sense of depth). all other wood types and figures i like the more natural look of satin as well as the lower maintenance.
