Wow! A cool looking bass... when you show up at a gig with this bass, you'd better be able to PLAY that sucker! :lol: interesting how they mix-and-match the neck washers and screws on the back side... I wonder if that's standard...

That's why it is not for me! but I love the way everything is mixed including the hardware -screws included- between chrome, black and gold! And the neck is a mix of dots, inlays and nothing...
