I'm "on honeymoon" with my latest purchase, a MIJ boxer. A P/J hybred, which successfully manages to be a re-issue and an update worthy of a 2021 release.  Choosing my bass! I spent around 3 hrs making a racket in Bass Direct, armed with my ears and and an open mind. They have a large collection of new and used kit so it look me a while to decide. The important criteria were the sound (tone/power) and playability, together with looks and cost. I was prepared to pay more if needed
