USA SUB bass

[Bird5]

I'm in the UK and new to the forum and could do with some help! I'm lucky to have three USA made MM SUB basses and would love to know a bit more about them. I tried searching here but came up blank. Can anyone point in the direction of definitive knowledge of these lovely basses please? Dave

We have a very fair rule about that:
First you post the pix, then you get the story !
Bonus points for pix at gigs ;-)
