So about a week ago i received this bass. It came setup perfectly out of the box and she also looks amazing. I've already spend quite a few hours playing on this one and i'm really impressed. It came with daddario nickels, i'm not really a fan of those but it still sounds great with them. Pups also sound good, knobs feel sturdy,fretboard feels smooth,... i can't actually find anything bad about this bass. I love modding my basses, so i'll probably change a few things to make it more to my preferences. But it really is an amazing bass out of the box.

measurements I know it is a strange request but please check the distance between the bridge and the bridge pickup. Want to confirm if I went nuts or not. (might have a weird OCD) Measure on the sides, as I marked, you might have your bridge misaligned. (or it's a very weird angle of the picture making it look misaligned)

Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

Let's hope it's an optical illusion. I also hope that headstock's an optical illusion. It looks a bit odd just behind the nut on the machine head side.

I have that model as well, another truly amazing HB bass! I recently removed the original strings and replaced them with GHS nylon tapewounds. Sounds, feels, looks and plays even better now.

This is a lovely bass, regardless of price, the workmanship is excellent. When you factor in the crazy low cost it is just unbelievable. Straight out of the box I did a quick play through for a Youtube video - 'scuse the lack of experience in playing fretless Also the ash body was so well matched I thought it was one piece, on closer examination I think it is 2, maybe 3.
