Yeah... HD, let me know how you like yours when it arrives. I'll post something once I get some time with mine.

Mine's a little unusual. It's a parts bass, and has both the original passive tone circuit and a P-Retro, with a passive/active switch and coil splitting. It was very reasonable!

I'm hopefully getting a Candy Red Stingray 4 with a maple board and a white pickguard (lefty)...yay!

I got this '96 Acacia 6 from Lamarjonz.
Sweet quilted maple top. Looks like wenge neck with maple and something else as stringers. Mahogany also (?) on the body wood. Lane Poor passive soaps. Kahler bridge. Gotoh tuners.

I took it apart and cleaned it, waxed it, polished the metal, put some Smith Medium Rockmasters on it. Sounds really nice.

A great 6!!! A little heavy though.
