It’s my favorite non Yamaha bass but it’s expensive. Do you play mostly punk or harder stuff? I ask because the voicing of the bass really lends itself to that. It wants to play loud and fast, especially with some fuzz. I can tame it, but it isn’t the best choice if you’re playing mellower music most of the time. I’m only cautioning because it is an expensive bass, and there are better options out there for more general purpose playing. Even sticking with Reverend.
@TheMaartian has a Wattplower too. He might be able to chime in if you have questions about it.

It’s actually meant to be my rock and metal bass

Do you plan on downtuning with it much? It is a short scale, those strings can get floppy if you go much below drop D or D standard.
I know I sound like I’m trying to dissuade you, I’m just trying to tick any boxes that I can think of that would cause you issues. Sonically, it’s a beast of an instrument. Weighs under 8 lbs so super comfy to have strapped to you for a few hours, other than the strap button placement. It’s a really unique bass all the way around. I’ve considered selling it a few times because I don’t play a ton of punk. Then I pick it up and play it, and it’s just such a rad sound.

I don’t downtune ever. Safe there. I’m pretty much a 30-inch scale guy now that my arthritis is bad. So I’m real familiar with them already. Not only is it a really great sounding and great playing bass, but I can’t imagine one made any more to my standards of beauty. I literally love everything about it. So I kind of have to have it. I’m mostly playing in the style of Geddy Lee or Steve Harris. So it should be amazing.

Just checked out that bass, it looks pretty sick. I am not a short scale guy, but this thing could get some playtime by me

That’s the finish I have. Root Beer Sparkle! What a great name. Here’s mine. It’s a lovely finish, but in person? Even better!
On both sides!

It could be way worse!!! You should be permanently disabled, and can’t work. And then you could want things like this:

Oh yeah … The bottom bass is too expensive, but I’m seriously gassing for that black and purpleheart bass in the first photo to be recreated in a 30-in scale just for my GAS. 
If you can find the Fretless Tune it would be approachable and not to mention it’s 3 octave neck, and it pretty much looks like that.

What is the purple one?
After I gave Toby @T_dub my Zoom B1 Four, I needed a replacement.
Looking forward to playing around with this.

I’d be really interested to hear how you get on with it, @JerryP.
I have the ME-90B, which I love. I bought that about the time the GX-1B was released - I did consider it, but ended up with a B-stock deal on the ME…
