I read about them when they first got released and they hit a lot of buttons for me . I like short scales , and for a change they placed the pickup in the sweet spot . But I thought they were a bit overpriced for what seemed to be a new take on a classic student instrument . So about a year after the release there were some blowout sales in the US and I managed to get one sent to Canada .
My only regret was not buying one sooner . I love the little thing . I'm an old Pbass guy so I'm more inclined to change my right hand position than reach for a knob . I'm fine with the single pickup . Beautiful comfortable neck , I just love the little thing .
I've heard some complain about the non contoured body , I don't see the need for no girlie contours . Some complain about the three point bridge , it's fine . If you insist there are several drop in options , not an issue for me . Some complain about the cheap finish , I have early wear on the back , to me it's not a big deal , I love the way it looks . It's got a lovely weight , a surprising variety of sound , a comfortable neck . It sounds great and it really is fun to play .
I love the little thing .
