Greetings dear host. I am working on my new acquisition here. A late 1970s SD Curlee Standard II bass. I wish it was 34" scale, but it is 32.5". It needs a bit of love, so I better get back to work.

It has pronounced and troublesome neck-dive. The electronics consist of a cheap PU and low-cost mini pots and cheap jack. This is a good bass for modding, but the neck dive will still be an issue.

I'm sure it's a great bass, as a matter of fact I really like it, but it has a heavy price tag for a Made in China bass, their quality control is hit and miss to say the least, I think I'm going with a Made in Mexico jazz bass for the same money 👍.
