A great bass for smaller hands
If you're like me and have shorter fingers and smaller hands, this bass could be the one for you. The Slim C neck and 1.5" wide nut is perfect for me. I don't feel like I'm trying to get my hand around a thick baseball bat like other basses out there. A sure shoulder-saver, it's lightweight with mine coming in at just a few ounces over 8 pounds. It's also a well-balanced instrument… read more in that the headstock doesn't take a nosedive if you let go of the neck. Sound-wise, it's a solid performer. My only complaint is how the volume controls have a point where turning down the volume is drastic instead of nice and gradual. Along with the drop in volume, there's an audible drop in tone, too, which is disappointing for such an expensive bass. Overall, I'm very pleased with the instrument. It was expertly setup and plays great right out of the box.
Beware of this bass!
Purchased this bass from a local store because Sweetwater did not have it in stock and still does not have it in stock, that's OK. Sweetwater is great, my guy is Ryan and he is great as well. This bass is NO better than any of my FOUR MiM Fenders. My Yamaha BB434 is MUCH better all the way around, hands down better. $1900.00 down the drain. I will sell this in about two years… read more and maybe recover most of my money. I put it away in storage so it won't get damaged. The only good thing about this bass was the case, it is great! Fender is selling their name. Name only. I will sell ALL my Fenders and buy Yamaha, Schecter, Ibanez and anything but Fender. Sorry but If you want great sound in a Fender buy a MiM ad some flatwounds get it set up buy sweetwater WOW, then go kick some bootie! Bass rocks! I am a 68 year old geezer been playing for over 50 years, I am just so disappointed I don't want others to find out the hard way like I did. Try a Yamaha...You will be surprised. Just sayin!
