Great sounding bass once I fixed the wiring

Overall the sound of this bass is great once I got the wiring figured out.

From the factory, the neck and bridge pickups were wired out of phase. The blend pot in the center position would make the sound completely die. I opened the control cavity and checked the schematics. Lo and behold the neck pickup was wired backward. I flipped the wiring and the sound was back to being what I expected out of Bartolini gear. Overall it is a good guitar. There are some minor finish issues but nothing worth sending it back. The internal soldering leaves a little to be desired. It is just globbed on everything. If your sound is weak with both pickups on, check the wiring. You want white and yellow wires going to the blend pot, no red wires.
