    Just been looking at pics of the real bass and noticed that whilst the Cort version has the two blade notches painted on, on the real bass, they are actual cut-outs. Are you going to add them or keep it pristine?

    That would depend on which axe bass you mean...he's had quite a few! Not all have chips and nicks in the blade and body. There is a bigger difference between the Kramer signature bass and the many iterations (and pick up configurations) they made for him.
