Strunal 5/35

[Bonin-in-the boneyard]

Hi, I'm after some information on 

The Strunal 5/35 hybrid 

I'm a lefty and this is a proper left handed model 

At a very reasonable second hand price 

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them 

I've been looking for a good starter bass one that will be a good gigging bass as well 

Thanks

Obviously I can't speak for that particular bass, it's history, setup and all that... But I play a 5/35, and it's a good solid bass, sounds good, and seems to be quite insensitive to the weather, temperature, humidity, etc. Over the past few years I've had the bridge reprofiled and a fingerboard shoot, which has improved playability, but I've no complaints at all really.
