Probably one of the best Bass deals out there. If you are ok with having a short scale bass then look no further. Sounds amazing, QC is pretty decent except for some sharp frets. The sound PUNCHES, has a pretty wide array of tonal options for a single pickup passive bass. Only thing I would change is the strings. The Fender flats kinda suck. I used the Dunlop flats and its like the bass is alive.
