Great bass. Cheap Hardware.
The playability on these basses are absolutely great right out of the box. As someone who does a lot of gigging, I want a bass that can stand up to the punishment AND sound great. The input jack on these is made of cheap plastic and broke only 3 days into a tour. I had to have it replaced with a more secure metal one. Then the string tree in front of the two high strings kept stripping… read more out on me and refused to stay in. A little wood glue fixed that easily. Then there are the pick-up covers, the plastic covers are covered in a thin metal foil instead of being metal. The foil very quickly wears away and you're left looking at this ugly plastic. For the price, I was really expecting more out of the quality of the hardware. The creme de la crem is that the truss rods on these have a very easy to strip cavity for the key. Even with only 4 or 5 adjustments, it is worn in some spots. The plus side is that this bass genuinely does sound great. The pick-ups deliver a very unique tone that has some great attack when paired with a good amp. The neck is easy to get around and feels good. The body has a shape that works great for fingerstyle or pick playing. It's just a shame that the quality of the hardware on this can't take being anything more than a studio bass. While I have recorded multiple albums with it, I think it will stay a bass for recording only. If you are looking for a workhorse for the road, look elsewhere or plan to upgrade.
