Best value: Excellent
See product manufacturer for dtails. Basically:

- Made in the USA
- New micro alnico Plow
- New bridge reinforced (not a Badass, but much more reassuring and much better than the chavalet seris of Previous)
- Alder body SELECTING Olympic white poly paint (white antique pass quite nice I think)
- Three-ply plate quail (overall finish reminiscent of the P-Bass 62)
- New patent (more yellow than before, trs also beautiful with the handle stocky, in the spirit series Vintage, Classic 50)
- Rosewood handle
- Volume and tonality simple but ffective trs.

Beautiful finish, perfect joints, new reinforced tui (very tough class, better than the molded MODEL) MODEL trs ropes properly adjusted average I get an Ernie Ball above.

UTILIZATION

The handle is trs enjoyable and comfortable for a bassist who loves beefy bass for (and wider pais a Jazz Bass), I have a Musicman Stingray 4 (92) is taken as close enough in hand.

Accs in acute satisfying (for me). Comfort gnral perfect, but reasonable consquent weight. In a perfect shape for me.
Easily obtained a sound is a P-Bass, not making his head to find. A low rock and roll, but a low trs class for a lot of finesse in the game

SOUNDS

I play a lot of mediator in a rock trio o the bass has a strong prsence. It has a trs big sound (for low patant without prampli !!!), rich bass, a medium trs Submitted, PB CHARACTERISTICS Fender sound, the treble is singing and dynamic , easy dosing. In my opinion she is comfortable in lots of areas (even in the slap, if you like the sound slap 70's, I like).

The only limitation may be the jazz / fusion. It REPRESENTATIVES srieuse a competitor for my Stingray. I pat the quality MODEL-General for the new American standard. It is not given for a simple low (1200 euros) but I MODEL RALIS is perfect, a high quality finish.

More importantly, what potato, it gives me lots of ides is happiness. I was looking for some time for a passive bass complter my Musicman, in a simple mind. I had a Squier vintage modified TB, excellent finish, big sound roots, but not enough versatility, and especially not the best mediums for P-Bass. I also test High Way Jazz Bass, Jazz Bass U.S., 50 Fender Classic (very pretty and enjoyable Mexican), Squier P-bass vintage modified (very good value), Fender U.S. P S1-Bass, American Vintage Reissue 62 (high class micro fabulous, but for the price of the default lis design vintage: mcaniques inverse skinny bridge, for a low price draisonnable as basic the PB).

OVERALL OPINION

Achetercemment.

Assets:

- The look 62 PB
- Remarkable finish
- The tui srieux
- SOUND
- Potato incredible
- The expressiveness of the microphone (many shades)

Cons:

- While the price of the same (price of a used Stingray)
- Grate competition with my Musicman

The ratio quality price is right even if we correct Whereas the finish is the lowest premium is more than a "standard" I think it is far from approximations of s S1 Series
