I bought the bass yesterday, great deal, nearly flawless (only 1 spot u can see on the upper horn, where a preowner made a little whole for a screw, not a big deal, i think it is fixable). This bass has red side dots and sounds awesome, it?s still set up with A D G C strings, so the bass sounds 100% like Stanleys piccolo. The price was unbeatable, good deal for a seriesII.
