7 lbs. of astounding tone, radically staggering looks, and consummate playability!

Lightweight and super-resonant Sitka spruce body is sandwiched between gorgeous quilted maple top and back. The headstock is scintillating curly maple. The mahogany neck is wrapped in a skin of carbon fiber with a 10"-15" conical section fretboard radius that's a real treat to play. Titanic tone flows out of 2 custom DiMarzio Ultra Jazz humbucking pickups with active Fishman EQ. A Fishman piezo system provides acoustic tones. Lightweight aluminum locking Sperzel tuning machines and GraphTech nut. Includes gig bag.

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Active Musician

Reviewer's Play Style: Rock, blues whatever

Average action at best (the upper neck is very playable), fine enough tonal variety but controls over-complicated, ergonically weird and curved back somewhat useless on oversize body. Bodyweight is nice, but materials used to gain that advantage has the result of making the bass look and feel cheap. Maybe it was designed by an engineer but not a bassist. Parker may disagree but this instrument is not worth price charged.

Ok bass - Not worth $

Posted by azflyman from Arizona on Oct 3, 2003

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Active musician, mostly studio

Reviewer's Play Style: Everthing but country

Light, sounds good but not as good as my Alembic, Ken Smith, or Zon. Average fit and finish compared to high end basses. Not a keeper.
