Good point. When you go to their portfolio page the basses even have the original designs named when you scroll over the images.

Photos of the GIB Bass and the bass that @Andyjr1515 upgraded for me.
Note the screw free electronics cavity and the lack of paint. The satin finish makes it so playable.
"Too many basses"....with me "downsizing" doesn't seem to work - I just end up buying other basses with the money..
Often to my regret....(selling, not buying)
I think the only duplicate I have is "The Irish Tour 74" by Rory Gallagher.
The vinyl copy has been played once! To copy it onto a c90 tape which I subsequently used whenever I used tracks for various tapes.
I have a 5 string - not particularly heavy - certainly not as heavy as my Sire 5er.
There's a very nice Seafoam green/ mint one in the Basses for sale thread - check with the seller...
