First Impressions of The Spacey Bass

See the pic HERE

Ok are you back?

Weight. Not too heavy. No complaints.

Playability. Not because of how it was built but it will take some getting used to. I've tried out exactly two 5-Strings before. It does play better than the new Fender 5-String I tried out. The neck is flatter than the Top of the line Ibanez 5-String I played once (for about three minutes) but that may or may not be true.  Again, no complaints here.

Looks: Stunning as you can imagine from the pics.

Strap Pegs: Not a problem how they were laid out.

Knobs: Minor crit. I'm not linking the smoothness and lack of "position marker". I might switch out the knobs. Maybe not.

Name Plate: hard to see in the pics but it is so cool.

Finish: Just as I suspected. Very nice job.

Sound: Small Problem. I'll let spacey know about this. FIXED!

All in all, so far it's a keeper. I'll definitely record it over the weekend and post results then.
