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.
If the mid control is on the bass and set flat not being used, then the sound is not affected by it either. No mid present or not should mean no mid as far as I know. At least that's the case with the Smith circuits.
