This bass is chock full of crazy awesomeness!
It plays so well now, well beyond expectations. Thanks Ray!
I have offered up the requisite sacrifices to daemonium de vibrato on my most recent project, "Road To Hell." You would love the dramatic harmonic dive, and the old Strat came back to pitch!!!!
I do like that one...
NO more reading about Keith Richard's for you.

A two-fer tonight. Someone was “under the weather” at rehearsal this evening, so I got to do some noodling on the Stoner Burst...after some wailing on the V. It’s ALL good...to me.
I definitely must do a Stoner Stroll with these two, and the recording gear...

Oh yeah! They made ‘em! Short run, but they come up now and then...good luck!
The neck is different from the SG version...NOT A CLUB.

U sure know me, DON. I sure like medium to big necks. Narrow nut widths and super thin necks and my big slow fingers aren't ideal combinations.
Then this V might not be for you. I like the club necks too, but this V is more in line with my LP Studio’s slim taper, from open to 5th fret....then it starts to open up a bit wider. My guess would put it in the ballpark of your 75ish SG for overall feel. It’s very comfy for me from 5th fret up. The lower frets are good too, but not like an old fashioned baseball bat neck.

Thanks, Don. If I came across one, I would simply have to handle it and give em a test drive.
Yeah, my 76 has a decently wide neck past fret 5 or so,,,,,,,,,,, from 0-5 it gets pretty narrow at the 1 9/16 nut. The one saving thing is the neck is pretty thick fatness wise.

The moons again....
Oiy Vey!!
There is a moon SG with a good looking neck repair here:
I was JUST about to offer a bit less and note the actual shipping would be about $32 (SC to NJ) but I still cant spend the $400+

They come up now and then...but it definitely takes some patience and perseverance.
The V is a bit more difficult usually. I still look from time to time.

Bastard, THE V's were really difficult for me up until a day or so ago due to me NOT knowing they even existed HAHAHAHAHA
