I received the Senator this morning. Beautiful bass but needs some work.
First off, it needs a neck reset. Right now the action is higher than on my upright (and I play arco). The bridge base needs some shaping to fit the top. And then there's the wiring.
Even with the mile high action I enjoy playing it. Maybe 3 years practicing the upright have made me less finicky about the action. It's full hollowbody - no center block - I like that. Unplugged it's louder than my Gretsch which is also full hollowbody.
It's extremely lightweight - like a classical guitar, maybe less. Slight neck dive but not as serious as a Beatle bass.
This is a crappy 1st pic through the mirror with my cell phone... better pics later.
