Weight wise it's relatively light at only 4.1kg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes with a good quality, decently padded gig case. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDisclaimer:  As with all my recycled basses, these are not works of perfection... They are designed to be highly functional , cool looking and reasonably priced. Finishing is not the level of a brand new Atelier Z or Fender Japan for example. There are flaws and in many cases some of the original scars on the body may show through a little. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BassJapanDirect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58782779375776,"sku":null,"price":1112.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0141\/4457\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_6c4c525a-3435-40bf-a6fd-4cfffedb8c33.jpg?v=1787996290","url":"https:\/\/bassjapandirect.myshopify.com\/en-au\/products\/dms-custom-funky-junk-4-lava-orange-burst-reverse-head-pj-special","provider":"BassJapanDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
