Bought this used with no background info. Neck plate shows "Profile", Professional and 930577. It is a full 34" scale bass in a precision bass style with solid body and maple neck. It is very solid and quite heavy. It ha the standard split pickup with only single volume and tone controls. The tone control has good range and is very smooth at the low end. Overall it has a great feel, and is easy to play with fast clean action. It is white (somewhat aged) with no pick guard and the neck is natural maple colour. I have never seen another of these listed or reviewed but I am very happy having it and playing it. It is a nice looking and very playable bass with good solid tone.

I play it through a Fender BXR 100 amp and this provides lots of tonal variation to make up for the basic controls on the bass. There is no background noise from the guitar with everything on and the bass on a stand right beside the amp. This a lot better than some other basses I have used. There is a nice full low end with excellent sustain when desired. At the higher end it can get a bit twangy with fingering noise also coming into play.

I did some minor adjustments but overall the fit and finish are very good. The action is fast and there is no fret bzz at all even with quite low finger pressure.

I have been playing offf and on for 40 years. This is as much fun as I have ever had with a bass. I could probably find a better one, but for now this suits me perfectly. It even came with a perfect hard shell case and it is being very well cared for.
