Overview

Well ... here is the bass as it was shipped to me:



I personally think it's stunning beautiful !!!!! Isn't it ?

Where to start ?  Something simple ....

Yes !!

The Factory specifications !!

Top: Flamed maple
5-Piece neck-thru-body: Maple/Wenge
Fretboard: Panga Panga
Dot fretboard inlays

Nut width: 38 mm
24 Frets
Pickup: 2 Bartolini MK-1 humbuckers
Preampickup: Bartolini MK-1 with 3-band EQ
1 Volume knob and 1 balance knob
Platinum hardware
Hipshot Ultralight machine heads

...........

The specifications are fully  correct ....................apart the fact this bass.................................................. IS NOT ACTIVE \ PASSIVE:

The toggle switch will only bypass the Equalizer ..
but will leave active the 1st preamp stage of pickups amplification
and related mixing .............as  We will see in the next posts !!!

So.......No battery.....No party .... just to be clear.....
