Oh Yeah. Joining its 1977 walnut finished Mahogany brother is a 1978 B301-A in just amazing condition. A solid pound of two heavier. This is just an absolute monster of playability and tone. I've currently got flats on the Mahogany so can't really A/B but the ash is bright. I will swap out the flats for some rounds I have around. The grain is just magnificent! Do I need two B301's. Duh.. One is Ash and one is Mahogany. A Mahogany natural was my first bass in 1978 so I clearly have a thing for these. Surprisingly this came from Sweetwater's newish Gear Exchange platform for a reasonable $1139 with free shipping. Might be worth keeping an eye on that platform.
