UTILIZATION

The neck is absolutely perfect.
End, stiff, varnished maple back .. perfect. I will say that it slides .. without slipping .. we slide, located on stops or you will. It's just perfect to be precise.
The trussrod. I never touched .. ever need, it never moved! In almost twenty years!
If this is not the quality ...

SOUNDS

The sound is absolutely great!
I have an American Standard Precision which he terribly close with less potato in big bass anyway, but the EMG are great! It's not gnognote .. done in the 90s or you were not in a roughly ..
Micro Jazz near the bridge that brings him to stop slamming incurious very very progressive bouto tone.
By mixing the pickups, it really varies on a good range of sounds ...
It is surprising.
It was still the upscale home Guild which won more than a American deluxe with tender ...
The sounds are set to the last boxes.
The agreement takes forever ...
This is definitely the highest quality. Nothing to say.

OVERALL OPINION

You guessed it, this bass is extraordinary.
It is light though imposing.
Forms can be unattractive (This is my case), but I never got never separated because it sounds perfectly fine and has always amazed people who had in their hands.
All the ingredients of a good bass together.
She ennobled older.
The sounds are very denies defined, well clear, well crystalline .. I use it mostly for clacking sounds as it outperforms other.
Rounded, there is, but it is not his strong point. Better an American Standard Precision I just bought and bluffing me in terms of roundness ...
I can not buy such a low nowadays because it is an absolute collection.
They are still selling expensive in the U.S., his country of choice because I am one of the few owners in France (Import shy), especially since mine is perfectly preserved ...
Teachers may use the low. Luthiers are very familiar with and agree: It's good.
If you cross a one day, do not be indifferent for your miss out on a thing!
