Japanese-made, good finish, no problem.
Manche Jazz Bass Rosewood, broad, pleasant, he was well in hand. 20 Frets
Motorsports Fender, it's beefy ...
Fender Standard bridge, a bit light for my taste, it tends more towards the folded sheet ...
2 Jazz Bass pickups.
A switch by a third micro switch + serial / parallel, I do not understand the principle, but the sound is better with =)
A switch active / passive with 2 adjustment knobs.
9 for the bridge a bit disappointing on a bass of this bill ...

UTILIZATION

Channel super nice, no problems for the treble.
The beast is out of balance, she leans her head, playing standing, it must "hold", it's tiring in the long run ...
She still weighs his weight, Fender ...
For the game seated, the horn flares, it's slippery, and there also must be taken not to let her go, but it is widely supported, and we get something for nothing: the look is hell ...
The settings are fairly intuitive, and the bass is super versatile ...
8 for the imbalance

SOUNDS

I play 70's 80's rock and blues rock, the sound should be perfectly ...
I hesitated with Precision, I do not regret my choice. I can completely change her, without touching the amp ...
With the bridge pickup tone open, it has a sound pastoriusien full of medium defined ...
In neck pickup tone open, the sound tends toward the jazzy bass ... We close the tone and the sound is much more rounded, warm, sometimes too well, there is a lack of précsision is a bit messy ...
Personally, my sound is found: the two microphones and the little magic switch is closed a little tone, we have a full, warm, rich as to overload the amp, set with sharp passing and serious which are all farting!
For slap it supports, it can even be enjoyable, but one does better.
I play without effects, without any special settings on the amp, Fender is the sound ...
Out of habit I do not play in liabilities, assets, the two wheels are pretty useless, it's on / off.
9 for the active

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year, I tried Precision, the Jazz Bass, Fender sound I wanted, I am served.
That style Jazz Bass and more complete, versatile, original ... And what a look!
It is worth its price, at the height of some American, to which it need not be ashamed ...
For me, used to 600 euros is a great deal, I would do without hesitation that choice, even to pay a high price ...
