First I assume you mean the Made In Japan 4 string Marcus Miller and not the US made 5 string? I have a 4string and love it. The active pre-amp with cut off switch is great and gives you a lot of tonal variations. The bound maple neck is nice. Only complaint is the weight, at least mine is quite heavy say 11-12 lb range. The ash body is like a brick. Other "con" is the battery compartment in front you need to take out 4 screws to remove the panel-minor inconvienience though.

LOVE the BAD $@! II bridge makes it RING......

Great for funk of course but could probably be used in any music setting since a ton of different tones.

Made in Japan craftmenship is good, good tight neck pocket good finish work on neck especially the binding on neck, inlays were good.

It's a good all around J bass, more versatile than the American Standard with the S1 switch which I also have.

It is the best sounding active bass I have ever played, and it also has awesome passive tone!
