Good day from the Capital City of Canada...
Thanks for your response.
I only acquired the bass yesterday at about 2pm local time... kit formed it, checked everything out and then got to work with removing any leftovers from previous owners....sweat, scratches, bad solder, etc.
At 10pm last evening, I hit the stage with it... HUGE sound with a ton of tone choices to work with. Just spectacular... and the "eye candy" rating is pretty good too.
It's got a super slick and very fast neck...with zero neck dive, very nicely balanced.
If this IS a R&D early version or great grandfather of the Spitfire, then the improvements in the final version new model, must be mind-boggling.
I did send an email with photo's to Bernie Goodfellow last week, but he hasn't responded as of yet. I suspect he's a busy guy...
At this time, this bass is not for sale... but if it turns out to have some providence too, even more reason enjoy it for a long time.
Cheers and thanks again,
