The color is perfect, the string tree is perfect, I've had great luck with MIM, active electronics (important for 5 string imnsho) the tuners look good, the high-mass bridge is perfect, the thing is perfect.

Only flaw, I haven't played one I hate ordering **** and sending it back.

Ok, so the MM sub is "ok" but now a year or so on, it's not gellin' the way my MIM jazz is. Changed the pups (at great expense) and it's dealable but not what I want.

"Hey too, why not get that Maruszczyk brand, because it's fiddy fiddy about ordering it. This is what it is, if I hate it, I send it back.

"Man too, that is a fantastic color!"

Isn't it though? And it's not "string through" which I hate with a passion.

One thing I don't like, it's 18v. Batteries are not free. Hope it doesn't have a problem in this area..........

Oh, and the 36mo no interest is PERFECT.

Meh, I dooded it. Feels right, worst case scenario it sucks and I send it back.

18v should mean more headroom in the preamp.

Should.

But unless it's miserly, also means mo' money with already too expensive batteries.

Anyways, we'll see. I couldn't pass up the opportunity.

I didn't see the absolutely horrific trolling (which I should have expected) in the other thread, I'm done with this place.
