I saw it Last night. I have actually played a Bass with one but truthfully I didnt use the Bar that much. 

 I really DOnt care to ROute the bass or do anything other than put the bridge on ...which brings up a interesting point . I forgot that there was a Bad Ass  and a Bad Ass 2 which is a Direct remount .


I am not interested in anything that I would need to change at all ..IE Drilling other holes ect .
