hi, do anyone know if this node in the back of this S2 is bad or not? i've heard that it could be a problem for the tone... can anybody make the light about it? thanks to you! img207.imageshack.us/img207/68/stacla6occbaps2.jpg

Sorry but I am not sure I understand your question. The bass looks fine to me. Any chance of some closer pictures of what you think the problem is?

Absolutely nothing wrong with that at all. Rob would never let anything out of the factory in less that 'perfect' condition. Grin hope that helps

Isn't it part of the grain of the wood? Hard to believe oil would be able to penetrate the lacquer finish unless there is a crack or scratch that goes all the way through. Can't see one in the photo.

My son wants one like that but unfortunately funds don't currently permit me to buy it for him. Sad

Because you keep snaffling gear for yourself! Very nice looking bass though, shame about the head Smile

Philistia, coast of Lebanon and Syria and small regions on the Isreali coast... But as you can see - Neither I nor Moo are from there! Congrats on the Shark by the way.
