I received this Bass today by FEDEx; let me first say i was expecting to see a guitar with some ugly scratches on it since I got it blemished.So I was prepared for this. When I took it out of the gig bag. It had lots of finger prints on it, but no scratches at all. I looked hard to find a dent or something. But no luck! the only thing I could find to complain about was the bridge setting was out of wack. After I polished her up with some Formula 65,and adjusted the bridge. This Bass is utterly Beautiful... I couldn't put it down all day. The sound was amazing (I chanded the strings to some DR Pure Blues). The harmonics are better than on my Fender deluxe active, which has great harmonics. If you are looking for a Music Man Bass but don't have that much money to spend on one. Please GET THIS BASS ASAP!!!! You will not be disappointed at all.. It sounds like a Music Man, It looks like a Music Man. And if you get one get the QM version, it's visually Stunning. The pics do it no justice. It's Gorgeous
