This was a custom build I ordered when I was playing more solo work in college. It’s a beautiful bass. I don’t use it on gigs anymore though. The neck is very thin and comfortable (for a 6 string) and is well balanced: it does not neck dive. The tone is very punchy in the bass, then warm, round, bell tone in the upper register. Nicest bass I’ve ever played.
