I pulled this bass out for the first time in ages. Surprisingly, it was almost in perfect tune. I took it to practice & played it for almost 4 hours, played & sounded great! The neck finish has yellowed almost to a perfect match to the body. It even worked well with my wireless gizmo, being active I didn’t think it would....... Hard to believe it’s been over six years since I had the NOS neck installed! Time flys!
