I was very excited about this new bass because of the lighter weight with my not so great back these days. But I was worried the sounds was going to be thin and weak like other "light" basses I've tried. Electronics only get you so far with rich tone.
I shouldn't have worried. THE TONE! Wow! It's amazing. And sustain is good for a bolt-on. It's light, but not cheap feeling. The balance is very good and the fretboard feel is awesome.
I typically take every new instrument I get in to my luthier for a good setup and checkout, but I started playing this baby day 1 and haven't stopped.
It gorgeous too. My only complaint is there are some fit and finish imperfections, but nothing glaring.
This is now my goto for recording, practicing, and on stage.
