congrats and welcome to the board!!!

My experience with the cirrus has been this.  It doesn't need a mid control at all.  That millenium preamp is a bit overrated IMHO for that cirrus tone.  I think for gospel/christian music it's tone as is is perfect!  Play it out for at least 2 months before you think about upgrading it.  You more than likely can do any mid adjustments you need on your amp.

Wow!  That is an awesome deal!  Especially for redwood.  Weren't those considered an upgraded extra-cost finish?

Yeah, the guy had it on ebay and had a some pics of it but no pics of the whole bass. So I called him, since his number was posted in his auction, and asked for a pic of the entire bass. He sent it to me and it had a price tag saying, "Was $1899.99....Now $799.00." So I called him again and asked him if I could buy it at his store's asking price. So now it's on it's way here.

Wow, that is a sweet deal.  I love the Cirrus basses (like Jeremyr, I would need a 34").  What types of wood is yours made from?

I believe it's an alder body, maple and purple heart neck, and a flamed redwood top. I'd post a pic but it's HUGE so I don't think it'll work on this forum. When i get it, however, I'll get some better ones.
