New to me, i'd never heard of one until today? anyone had a fiddle with one? i like the idea.

In case its not just me..mexican p bass with rear mounted active big humbucker .....like a stingray p bass!

i think they were only around in the mid noughties?

They were made early to mid 2000's I think, for about two years?
Yip, played one for a couple of gigs-bass player in a support band had it as his spare which he kindly let me use when I broke a couple of strings on tour. Sounded a bit like my SUB, maybe a tad brighter. I liked the neck more than I liked the neck on my SUB
I liked the all-black look and the chrome control plate. The one I used had a micro switch on it (don't know what it did or if it was stock)

A decent bass

They were a nearly great bass. Bit more effort and they'd have nailed it.

I was close a couple of times, sold a few through the shop in 2004/2005 I think?

Micro switch was stock, coil switch or coil tap (long time ago, I forget)
