The bass doc wasn't sure, I asked exactly this question when he was building it
He said, and I think he is right, having chipped some off, that's it's poly but it's very thin as poly goes. It's way thinner than the mex fenders I've seen
I have a bass with exactly this same body from the bass doc and I can confirm that they are high quality, nice wood but also light - I recognise the sunburst pattern
I use a zoom b2 into a little MP3 amp off amazon "aroma" Has small speaker too so I can play along in a quiet room at OM nights
If you have an iPhone or iPad then tonestack app is worth a look too

There were a couple of years in the 80s that I thought were OK, all the rest of it has been sh*t.
The 21st century so far has been the worst of all of it & there's no sign of it getting any better.
Looking forward to death quite honestly.

My basses live in their bags in a corner of the kitchen and my zoom lives in a cupboard. **
But we are moving soon and there should be a bedroom free....

I have a tanglewood odyssey with an artec apc pro. Previous owner fitted a battery box on upper bout. I chased and found a fault in the junction block that joined the battery box
The preamp still doesn't work (I'm pushing the batt check button and it doesn't light up, new 9v batt checked with a multimeter
Does anyone have one or experience of one ? Do I need to plug in a lead to get it to work?
Do they "burn"?
