Got this yesterday, pretty happy with it so far.

It's a 2016, so it still has the HFS/Vintage Bass pups. I think the neck pup is a little "quacky" (for lack of better terms), might consider the magnet swap like I've seen suggested in another thread. Anyone have experience switching the HFS to an Alnico IV? (been inspired by demos of the SD Saturday Night Special).

Well, the assumption about the pickups was wrong. It has 85/15S pickups, not VB/HFS.

Still want to try the magnet swap. I just got a pair of Alnico 2 and Alnico 4 magnets. Probably try the 2s first in both pups.
 
It's a 2016 with 85/15? was just having this discussion in another thread about which pups in an S2 2016
 
Nice! I really like that in white. I haven’t seen one like that. Congrats on a great score.
 
Interesting. Its a 2016 so I assume used?
Yes, I just got it a few weeks ago. The seller actually also thought it had VB/HFS pups, not sure whether he just responded "yes" to my question on that to not rock the boat :)
