«  Correct for a very low very taken proper »

GOOD! This bass is made in China or Korea I do not know but it is too far from the American model for sure (which are also much more expensive etles finishes are a bit sloppy but far from unbearable). One might regret the number of frets (20 total) but this is how models are made "Precision". Simple and effective settings, a tone knob and a volume ... nothing to lose ;) This being said follower of "simple and efficient" My choice turned to this bass.

UTILIZATION

I had other basses before (an Ibanez, Epiphone one, a Washburn) and I loved the neck, neither too flat nor too thick PERFECT!
I really like the design of the P-Bass at first, but then more white and black is not current and is reminiscent of a Sid Vicious, in short! Very pretty.
Access to acute and a little complicated but that is all the same P-Bass: the heel between the handle and the body is for many.
Sound: My opinion has little value because I love his P-Bass pickups and the Duncan disigned restores Well, I think the sound and quite warm, although with only two knobs was not a wide range sound, it is the P-Bass sound very versatile.

SOUNDS

It has a clean, well defined, with a good attack (perfect for rock, and other music that slappeurs tap). Tickling in the amp settings you can have a full and its relatively heavy, or lighter and fluid. For me I done by Punk Rock / Grunge, I currently play on Ashdown combo (but I will soon change) I try a combo and a head Ampeg all complemented by a delicate Big Muff and many how to say ... SEVERE CA OATS! You can do anything more with such a low.

OVERALL OPINION

Gonna do now 1 year that I use it, I had no problem but then no (reliable gear), I'm tired and I do not know if I get tired one day. I have not tried it I knew exactly what I wanted. What I liked it or not: I loved almost everything (sound, look, reliability, simplicity and so on), that I have a little less like they are finishing the Barbarian (the pickgard incorrectly fitted, the varnish on the handle of average quality).
In any case it is only positive, absolutely no one loses money by buying this model I recommend it to any beginner bassist and even those who are starting out and touch that did not necessarily want to leave 600 € -650 for an entry-level model P-Bass Fender.
PS: I'm not the maximum, because nothing is perfect and even if it is a good bass can still get better, but still ...
