I had the pleasure of spending a little time with this beauty today.

It absolutely sings in all registers.If I wasn't saving hard for a 20th Anniversary bass (or possibly an early MK Signature)I could be very tempted.

Wow!  That's a beauty!  Welcome...
I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Thanks guys for nice welcome! I have only one more pic that is the right size showing the back side.
 
 
 
This bass sports the blue L.E.D.S on the finger board edge. Really nice feature on darker stages.

What an entrance! Welcome to the club.
Beautiful bass Allen.
 
I would love one just like it although in fretless.
