Bass is very heavy and the body is very uncomfortable. The neck, however is
very comfortable and easy to play due to the narrower string spacing and
its flatness. The strap buttons are very tiny for such a huge bass. The
tone of the bass is decent and is nothing special.
I would recommend this bass just because it's John Myung's signature
model.
