Comments:

This is an advanced hybrid with carved spruce top, solid willow ribs and a flat all maple plywood back.  The flat back provides great stability and a tight low punch, while the solid ribs and top provide the tonal character of a fully carved bass.  It has a full and complex tone, and is very easy to get around on.  The shorter string length and slightly smaller neck radius are very easy on the hands.
