Awesome , Is all I can say . As usual plays right out of the box . Set up was good , a little out if tune but nothing crazy . I own a sterling ray 5 , also a musicman stingray special , this bass is just as high of quality as my American made stingray . Finish is awesome , sounds great. Alot of different sounds you can get out of this. Put it this way it was a back order so I waited a month , but we'll worth it . See these play so well they cant keep them in stock lol . Same as sterling dark ray . If your think about it do it , it's well worth 799 . Thank you for fast shipping too . I buy all equipment right here . Can't ad for more lol
