This is a Gecko 6 string from Warmoth. I ordered the bod and neck in raw form, meaning they cut the bass, neck pocket, know holes, neck and fretboard woods to your choosing. It arrives as unfinished body and neck and it's your deal to finish it and put it together.

So, I got it in, I did the finish on the body and neck, added the hardware and put the neck on. Then I had a pro do the electronics as I feel that can be a "deal breaker", meaning if that gets messed up it won't matter how good the bass is setup.

I have to tell you, the action is spot on as I like it low Low LOW. I play with light touch and incorporate tap, slap, fingerboard and chording. The sound is very focused and PHAT, which is what I was really hoping for.

Again, I am heading to Jacksonville all next week, but I am for sure going to post some more pics, sound clips and probably video clips. I have basically been waiting for this bass to be done so that I can do my solo CD.
