Lovely piece of wood there. What is the exact weight please?

[bagsieblue]

Bass weighs 10.2 lb

I have the 5-string version, the L1505, and the sound is phenomenal. The MFD pickup is monstrous, and they got the placement just right imo.

I don't think the thumb rest is original, but it looks quite classy. GLWTS!

Compared to the Stingray, it's a little bit nearer to the bridge ( i had measured ). Additioned to the MFD, that gives a lot of growl !

To note that 90's L 1500 still have the early body shape, different from current production. Personally i prefer the original shape.
