Be prepared to put in some work
Pro: - The Silver Smoke finish is awesome. There's no doubt about that. - An incredible bass neck. The rounded edges are outstanding. I've owned a few instruments now with rounded edges, and this is the best I've seen this executed. The satin finish is SOOOO smooth, and the profile just feels perfect. The neck is the definite highlight of the instrument. - Gorgeous sounding P… read more pickup. Full and growly, just the way they should be. Con: - Underwhelming J pickup. "Noiseless" pickups generally lack character. This is an example. - Cheap preamp. Mine came with a faulty midrange control that crackled and jumped between settings as you turned the knob. I replaced the entire preamp with an Aguilar OBP-3, and WOW what a difference. - The bridge saddles are made out of zinc. Zinc is a cheaper soft metal. It will break down faster than brass or steel, and out of the box it doesn't transfer tone the way those metals do. - On the bass I received, Fender forgot to remove the finish from the frets. A friendly reminder that the bass was assembled in Mexico. Now, you need to decide if you want to spend this kind of dough for something that still needs work. I don't regret my purchase - the neck is that good, and the bass gets compliments on its looks - but be prepared.
