I’m sure the MIM Geddy Lee is every bit as good as the MIJ. Mine is a Bitsa. MIJ Geddy Lee body, Status Graphite Neck. Sounds great, nice to play- I still don’t get on with the shape of Fender Jazz basses though so may sell it at some point.
Nope none of it bothers me. Only thing I can’t be dealing with is complicated instruments with levers, switches and knobs everywhere. That’s mainly because I’m a buffoon that has enough trouble getting a decent sound from a Precision.
