Nice workmanship. Lightweght and easy to play. Great vintage tone. The overall length is 45 inches, so even for a short scale its kinda big. The neck seems a bit wider than most but not difficult to play. The bridge pickup is great, very crisp at 12K ohms, but the neck pickup is only 1.2K ohms and not very deep sounding. I upgraded mine already to 30K one, fat and sassy. Overall she does great for my classic blues band. Not a rock bass. Play country or soul and shes fine..
