Every bass player and engineer, Recording/FOH/Monitor always compliment it to be the best sounding bass they've ever heard... no kidding...

I'm Blessed to own it... Won't sell it either.
 
Unfortunately for me, I just let myself get carried away and ordered an RBX4 A2. I'd been wanting something "Jazzy" (I'm normally a P-Bass guy) and this is an inexpensive way to get there - $299.95 shipped at ZZSounds. I'd seen one on stage recently and I liked the look and sound. Invalid Link Removed

Love the overall look of that bass, hate the lights though.
