I've owned this bass for about 8 months, and it plays and feels great! But, it wasn't until I got it into the studio to hear what it truely sounds like. The bass sounded sooooo good! our producer wanted to know who made it, and were he could get one!!! I just love the way this bass plays, SOUNDS, and feels. Everything on this bass in prefect. If you're looking for a top notch custom bass look no further. Matt is a great guy. I asked so many little questions, and he was always there with any answer!! I'm going to get another bass soon from him! check out his site.......http://babs.cs.umass.edu/~schmill/fbb/pages/
