Great, I was hoping that would be the case! I saw the 3 knobs and guessed that the mid control was missing. I was not surprised to hear another great sounding Smith bass but clarity in the note fundamental was surprising to me because many other basses with passive pups and 2 band eq usually sound muddy. Imho, there's something about the presence of a mid control that adds clarity even if you don't use it.
I can't wait to get this bass!
As far as ability, I just hope I'm never asked to do something like that! Lol, he has a nice touch that suits his style.
