This is @Al Krow - the bass is halfway out the door barely before he's had a chance to play it anyway 🙂

Hah! 

Tbf when a seller makes you an offer that you can't refuse on a bass that's already turned your head, well...it would just plain be rude to turn him down wouldn't it? 

Anyway you gents should know by now that I'm a sucker for white neck-through BBs.

I have the MP-4 and have already expressed my dissatisfaction with the supplied wiring and active circuit, and that the P pickup dominated the tone. I have EMG active pickups arriving in a few weeks, which will be an interesting experiment at least. A couple of frets are slightly high, six months in, which I plan to tackle soon-ish.

Anywhere else in the world, that would be enough to get you arrested!

Hah - very probably true! 

In fact anywhere that's not a haunt for aging bass players who know that playing their BB sporting a PJ and thinking about EQ is a perfectly natural pastime.
