« Kingston Electric Bass »

Published on 11/11/03 at 15:00
Its a 3/4 size of whatever. I purchased this bass for $60.00 on sale at a pawn shop in the summer of 2001 or 2002. I was 14 or 15 at the time and did not really know much about guitars. This guitar helped me play better and learn bass, but needless to say its a piece of junk. The strings and frets rattle, I put some stickers on it. Then got a regular electric guitar, then a Squier Affinity P bass, which is the bomb.com.. I learned how to play regular guitar quite well and yesterday got a Jag Stang (fender). I dont recommend Kingston they are a Canadian company who are not very reputable, so Ive heard.. This is the cream white model.

I like its size its cute, and that it influenced my music style because it is my "first guitar" or what not.

Its just junky..It might be vintage or something but it rattles, buzzes, and just plays bad.

Its cheaply made. Rosewood neck, alder or bass wood body. Regular bass pickups, nothing special.

I think the bass is not good, its ok if you are a beginner like I was and or a kid who's looking for a cheap piece of equipment.
