I received my Bass from dennis ADIRONDACK GUITARS today.
Well packed and fast service. Cant complain about anything.

First thoughts about this one.
Big array of sounds, with the pickup selector
Played pretty good straight out of the box.
fast , smooth neck.
Im not really a fan of string through the body so i restrung it with rotosounds and went through the bridge.
The strap button is on the underside of the top horn, i think i will change this to the neck heel.
overall so far it sounds quite amazing and switching the pickups make alot of choices, which can be quite distinctive on every selection
Heavier than i thought it would be for a shortie but not as heavy as a fender jazz.
Bridge looks to be full adjustable but i havent had time to do any adjustments

Pretty happy with this one and probably be off loading some others now as this can cover alot of ground
Feels good, hardware look heavy duty.

the only thing i can pick on is the string spacings are wider than Im used to.

I was impressed too when I tried it at GuitarCenter. I only wished the neck radius would not be as flat to give more a vintage feel though. I almost bought it. Played with a pick with flatwound strings might be great with this bass

I agree about the flat neck
but apparently thats one of their trademarks (so to speak)
The neck actually reminders me of an Ibanez Atk, same feel.

6 way pickup selection
