I got this awesome axe at Guitar Center. The key thing to do I find a price on the web, print it, and bring it into the store. They'll match the price. I got this Rolls Royce of a guitar at a Ford price. It was only $130 ($150 with all the needed eguipment).

This Guitar is great. First of all, they throw in an extra pickup for deeper sound than other madels like the infamous "P" bass. Second, it has not only a volume and tone button, but a fade button too. Third, it just looks awesome. It jumps out at you with its one of a kind body and metallic paint. Finally, It produces a sound that is stage quality. It is a steal.

The only two problems with this bass, and all of its typr that I've seen, is that the finish on the paint is somewhat sloppy and the knobs are very loose, too loose.

The bass has a bolt on neck that can be adjusted from the bottom. It's body is a vairation of the "P" style. Also, It has three knobs, volume, tone, and fade. The fretboard is rosewood and the neck is thick and sturdy. Finally, it has excellent pickups. They are the best I've seen on any bass under $500. If the tag on this bass said $400, you'd believe it.

This bass is great. It is good for both a starter and an established musician. The bass was so great that even though the only color that was left in the store was purple, I got it anyway. Keep rockin' with the Yamaha RBX270 bass!
