MGR/andrew mcgrory « Peavey Milestone 3 »
Published on 05/23/03 at 15:00i received this bass as a birthday present in late august 2002.it was bought from fox's music in lincoln for £145.
the good thing about this bass is that i feel it is perfect for someone who wants to start to play bass, and as their first bass is value for money.
the neck becomes very hard to slide up and down on (maybe thats got something to do with my hands?), the tuners slide out of tune very quickly (not very good for stage performance(having to tune your bass in between most songs eventhough it's still supposed to be in standard tuning or what ever)). the last complaint is 'IT LOOKS TOO MUCH LIKE AN IMMITATION OF A FENDER JAZZ BASS!!! note;- IF U PLAY LIKE FIELDY OF KORN PLEASE BUY SOME STRAPLOCKS FOR THIS BASS.
the body;- solid. the neck;- as stated above, tuners;- as stated above, controls (2 volume and tone;- resonable tone variance (though only one tone knob), pick ups (2 jazz bass pickups);- resonable/pretty average to low, bridge;-quite sturdy, lead hole (where you're lead goes in);- fell apart after 8 months.
a perfect entry level base, just don't rely on it for stage use.
