Frequently Asked Questions
The finish is a gloss poly, so it's reasonably durable, but be mindful of heavy strumming or belt rash; a clear protective film can help.
The modern 'C' profile is generally comfortable, but players with very large hands might prefer a thicker neck – it’s not a super chunky profile.
It's more articulate and punchy than a heavily aged vintage bass; it lacks some of the inherent warmth and 'woody' character, but offers a more modern, defined sound.
