    Fabulous basses. Gollum has mine now, which is appropriate as his middle name really is Jaco...

    no fret markers on the fingerboard too, looks nice and clean !

    Arrived today. Plays nicely out of the box. On special for 399. 00 I just couldn't say no....
    I do love the lack of a Pickguard, just like my USA Jazz back in the eighties....
    I would never join a club that would have a member like me.....

    One thing that irks me a little is that many guitars and Basses seem to use the plainest and often darkest piece of timber at the top and most visible part of the body, leaving the most attractive timbers hidden under control plates and even Pickguard..... Kits that I have see seem to be no exception.....
