I had a chance to sneak downstairs and play for a while. First impressions: on a 2" cotton strap, there's a slight tilt. I wouldn't call it neck diving. I'm sure it's because the upper horn isn't as long as on a typical Fender-inspired design. The tip of the upper strap button is opposite the 14th fret; by comparison, on my MM SUB it falls about halfway between the 11th and 12th frets.
Unlike Scott, I did not hear any significant dropoff in volume when bending, even doing half-step bends with my left hand and really trying to pull the string off the poles with my right. Then again, I'm not a string bender, maybe it's just a matter of different technique.
The neck profile is comfortable and not too thick front to back. The sound, well, it's definitely not a T-bird but it's certainly no MM either, despite the MM look of the pickups. Not muddy at all, even with the neck pickup soloed. IMHO clearer and not as midrangy as a modern or Bicentennial 'bird, more fundamental, nice highs but not as crystal clear as one would expect of a Fender or MM. All in all a nice tone. I haven't pushed it hard so don't know how aggressive it can be.
Using the highly scientific method of weighing myself with and without the bass, it's about 8 1/2 lbs., compared with 10 lbs. for my poplar SUB, which is a slab body. As you can see, it really isn't compact, not much difference in the body sizes except for the upper horn. I'll take better pics with some daylight coming into the basement later
