I didn't know where this bass came from before reading the previous review.

20 frets, neck with rosewood fretboard.
P-bass style pickups
Volume and tone controls

USE

Probably the guy who wrote his review before me bumped into a model that had a defective neck, because the frets on mine are flush.

Access to the upper frets is comfortable enough.

Its weight is all right, it's lighter than most.

SOUND

You can slap fine with it.

This bass is incredible with distortion. It has an aggressive guitar sound with a nice bassy touch to it on the background. I was rather surprised by the sound quality.

The "clean acoustic" sound with a multi-effects pedal is great.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using this bass for 9 months and, being my first instrument, I think it's pretty good.

I love its weight, but I hate the poor quality of the tuners, they are too fragile.

Being a lefty, I didn't have many options to choose from, but this one covered my needs.

I was surprised by its value for money. For less than 200 bucks I could get a bass that sounds pretty good with better quality amps than the one I have.
