Mine is a cheap ass Fender bass vi rip off, but it HAS put my better four stringed instruments on retirement. A real nice tic tac bass sound and the mini humbuggers KILL with fuzz. :idk: Just found a cood one, I guess, the quality control is something from uneven to absolutely horrible from what I can tell after trying three of these out through the past years.

Always wanted a Gretsch Corvette. They look sooooo nice. I would do so many unspeakable things
