For background: I am a semi-professional musician and recording engineer/producer. Besides some short stints in LA, I've mostly spent my music career in the local San Diego scene doing a variety of things from guitarist and bassist in bands, recording, live engineering, and DJing. I've been playing guitar specifically for 25 years. I also worked at the Taylor guitar factory in finish for 2 years so I know a fair amount about the guitar manufacturing process. I consider myself semi-professional only because I shifted my main career to technology and now music is more of a "serious hobby."

What a fine instrument this is. Very well constructed and feels great. Plays smoothly and looks beautiful. Very resonant! My only gripe, and it is minor, is that the pickups are cheap and a bit wonky and the placement of the volume knob gets in the way of picking. Bullfighter is definitely going places if they keep this up! I just found a new favorite guitar.

I wanted an inexpensive four (4) string fretted bass to practice on but, didn't want a cheap one. This had the affordablity, looks and reputation for being good quality aswell as playability. It is comfortable to play right out of the box literally and I will say that I entend to change the strings however, no need right away. I recommend this bass to beginners and anyone wanting one for kick around giging purposes.

Great little bass guitar for beginners. I Purchased this as my first base when I began to learn and all things considered this is a good purchase and not terribly expensive. The quality of the instrument is very good, it sounds great considering how low of cost it is,And even though it’s not the most important thing it is a very attractive instrument. This is a great buy for a beginner or somebody wanting an inexpensive base to tour but with all an expensive instruments it does have some slight drawbacks. It is a little heavier than most upper line basis I have encountered probably because they are using less expensive or lower grades of wood. This guitar will more than likely have to be set up by local professional want you receive it. The string height was very high in the neck had to be straightened. Although, these are very typical issuesWith most guitars being purchased straight out of the box. All in all a good product and I would recommend this for a beginner or anyone looking for an expensive best guitar of good quality.

The bass arrives in perfect condition and to be a 299.99 bass it sound really good, this bass is for practice or to take with you so you more expensive bass don't get damage is a good deal also for beginners but the color in the picture show like the bass is a light cream, more like white pearl and is not like that, this bass is like you see in my pictures, is really cream color, so if you order this because the color you saw on amazon picture be prepared to be disappointed, I don't care about the color because I like stuff that looks different so I was please, now out of the box the action was low enough for me to don't changed, what I did was change the strings for S.I.T David Ellefson signature strings, the strings that came with the bass are not bad but after play for 2h my finger turn black so I understand those strings was cheep and old, so after I switch the strings the bass sound way better, also I fix the intonation because it was not right, those are minors set up for a bass that cost so low...look good and sound preaty good for the price, don't spec this bass to sound like the real Music Man or the sterling that is not SUB edition because is not but sound better that lot of bass i try that are under $350.00
