A small warning for all true bassists: I am a pianist by training. Received today, so a bit premature for a full evaluation. Kudos to Woodbrass for the delivery, ordered Monday evening, received Thursday morning. Nice appearance of the product. But one of the screws holding one of the pickups was completely loose but fortunately not lost. Small quality control deficiency at CORT. So as a precaution, I re-tightened the four screws holding the 2 pickups. The settings (pickups) need to be well studied. The potentiometers are not just for show, quite sensitive and the possibilities seem immense. The neck is very pleasant and comfortable to hold. Since the bass is not my main instrument, this product corresponds to what I ordered and what I expect from it. Beautiful instrument in a mid-price category, and I benefited from an attractive price during the sales. For now, I recommend this product.
