Get a chiropractor and straplocks and your in business. Neck thru body gives long sustain. With treble opened up it can sound harsh when played solo but seems to blend well with other instruments. Play jazz, rock, standards, polkas, whatever. You WILL be noticed.
Finish looks remarkably good.
The trussrod has to be adjusted once every seasonal change because of the thin and looooong neck. If you don't use straplocks, better start looking for a replacement bass. I've never called them, but they never called me either. The T-Bird was the first good bass I ever owned and over the years all the other ones have been chucked. If it was lost or stolen, I would quit playing and join a monestary.
