Enhanced MP-4EB Creme : Amazing bang for the buck, perfect with EMG upgrade :)

Pros:

-features (ebony board, steel frets, inlays, binding, trough body stringing, great bridge)

-great finish

-unbelivable neck for the money

-even frets, great action

-preamp is great

CONS:

-pickups are way way over the top pumped and hot. There is just too much going on with that P pickup and MM pickup is a bit thin. They fixed that phase issue some enhanced models had. you have to play around a lot to get even, balanced sound. pickups are way to sensitive and moving one side of the P pickup lower by a mm affects the loudness of strings over it by a lot. i had E&A strings clip my preamp and G&D strings being few dBs below clipping. also, bridge pickup is acting wierd, E string is clipping, rest of them are way quieter. really strange issues with pickups.

One thing, if you play with pick and use drive, than the stock pickups are the way to go.

September 2022 update:

I've upgraded the bass with EMG P and EMG MMTW pickups with EMG BQC Control 3 band preamp. bass sounds mind blowing now! These should come stock! No issues with using P and MM pickup at the same time. This bass is my no1 player now!
