I am just getting back to playing Bass. After a service time loss I have only 3 fingers and thumb on my left hand and only nubs and a thumb on my right hand but love music and wanted to play again. I bought the Red quilted finish.

I bought this bass from guitar center 179.99 after looking around a few places to have a good solid unit to try to play again with in my hands.

The bass has a wonderful feel to it and sounds great through the ampeg 50w I am using. the P/J pick ups all work and the knobs are first class and have no dead spaces or fade issues. The look is beautiful and it feels good standing or sitting while I play.

The strings that came on this bass were garbage. Only a small adjustment to the neck made this bass ready to play.

Well made it is a little tank of a bass. I feel very sure that this bass could withstand a strong thrashing and still play well and be ready for the next gig.

This bass is a great starter, on stage performer or practice unit. It really fills the room with quality sound when asked to play.
