Huge Sound for Small Price

Besides looking bad*ss in black and maple, the volume, tones and character of this bass makes it easily one of my favorites. The neck is unusual in that it's completely void of urethane finish; it feels "raw" although very well-sanded. But my favorite feature are the pickups. Paired with my Acoustic B300HD/Fender Rumble 700w 2x10, the P pickup crushes my little studio with thunder. Wow. The J pup has the familiar "snappiness" and mid-freq presence so many modern bassists enjoy. I bought it primarily for practice and band rehearsals, and as a backup...but I now consider it good enough for gigs. Finally, I'm very pleased that the bridge is of a quality that permits pretty low action, a must for all of my basses. Should you be on the fence about buying this bass, I suggest finding a GC that has one in stock/on a hanger and giving it a spin in person. Then you can compare it to Squier CV and Fender Mexi basses. The weak point, and is common with lower-priced basses, is fret sprout, sharp fret edges. But even so it's really not that bad. I hope I've helped you make an informed decision.

    I have had my eyes on this bass for about two months before I got it on sale. I am a life long guitar player that has dabbled with bass but now want one to take it a little more seriously. I am a Fender guy, and really wanted a Fender P bass…but now I think I am set for far cheaper! Setup, finish, and neck are all great! I love my new thumper!
