Ah! Thanks. You like it super low I take it? Do you know what strings is she wearing at the minute?

D’addario nickels, not keen personally, best sound I had with the bass was with DRs multi coloured silks not sure of the specific type. It sings with Roto Swings too

Cool - thanks. Looks like December 2015, with the Fender copy of the Badass. Is it just the photo or is there a shim in the neck pocket?

Looks like it's shimmed. The Badass  + Hi mass bridges sit higher on the body as they have a thicker bottom plate meaning the neck usually needs a shim to make tha action manageable as the bridge saddles won't go low enough on their own
