One of my pupils brought one along to a lesson bought from fxpedal.co.uk (nice plug for you there Richard!) and I was bowled over how much like a Stingray it sounded and felt at a much much lower pricetag! I would put this somewhere inbetween the [size=5][b][u]OLD[/u][/b][/size] SUB (US made) and the newer Sterling Ray basses! Well put together, good quality finish, great MM tones courtesy of the 2 band eq on the bass. The tuners even felt solid and held their tuning nicely!
A 5 string might even find it's way into my collection!!!! That is, of course, depending on the weight!
