The finish on the bass is really good - smooth and no trace of unevenness or ripples. It appears that however he treated it, he put either clear poly or resin over the graphics - I'm betting on poly.

When I play it, the entire body resonates with the notes - I don't think the final finish coat 'muffled" it or interfered with the sound.

Definitely a fun bass...and MY bass, more than any other I own.  I'm having fun with it and it may improve my practice habits.

And I was about to ask how that finish influences the sound......... :P :P :P

Repeat after me: There is no such thing as an "player-age-inappropriate fin" on a bass!

As far as I can tell,  it didn't hurt  it at all.   ;D

Well, I was about to say it too, but since I'm half colorblind, what do I know about blues and purples... :P

I have a jam coming up this Sunday with our lead guitarist.  I've been brushing up with it in the evenings.
