Quality


Great sound, nice pickups, and great for a beginner.

Price


This bass is amazing for the cost.


Great value for the money and it plays very well.


I was looking for something below 300$ to fill a stay-at-home position.


As long as you understand this, and realize that's why the price is so low, you should be able to manage your expectations.

Shipping


Arrived a couple of days early, and unharmed.

Packaging/appearance


The seller packed this like a champ and was totally ready to just tune up and slap away.


Let it get to room temperature before opening the packaging.


Looked great out of the box, after some initial basic set up (tuning, duh!

Competitiveness


Best comparison would be a squire jazz bass, with the quality of an ibanez.


And this bass is far superior than those 90 to 100 dollars models found on the cheaper side things .
