Dino is one of the best folks to work with when it comes to having an instrument built for you. I am an un-conventional player that I play a left handed bass strung right handed. Dino had no problem setting this up for me at no extra cost. It was shipped very good with no damage. The bass is a breeze to setup with the pivot neck for action adjustments. I put some Thomastik Super Flexible strings on it and the sound is AWESOME!! I call it the "Thunder Stick" The low "B" string just shakes the floor when you play.

Bowing is quite nice on it and the sound is good. Pizz work is REALY NICE! It plays like butter and the sound of the Bartolini bridge is excelent!

I would recommend anyone looking for an electric upright to checkout BSX Basses. the price and craftsmanship is par non!
