I got this bass from a local used music store for an amazing $350. I personally thought this was a good deal, consitering the fact that at the time, the list price for one of these was nearly $850. So, i bought it asap!

THIS GUITAR IS AWESOME. i would recomend it for anyone who can find it, and has the money. It comes with 2 nice active pick-ups that are GREAT for slap-bass. Everything about it is great. The neck has no fret buzzes at all, which is something i'm very picky about. I don't know if it came this way, or adjusting was done, but it is nice. It's a 24-fret. it's got a REALLY good tuning system on it. i tune it for 15 seconds before a gig, and i'm good to go for the whole show. my own personal touch to this ax was to add an extra higher (c) string to it, instead of the conventional extra lower (b) string like is found on most 5-string basses. this enables you to have a better range for slapping, which i'm quite fond of. The design and color, and play-a-bility of this bass are amazing. everyone should defenetly try one out!

Theres nothing i don't really like much about it. when i bought it, it had a big crack in it in the back, which i didn't care too much for. Let's see here.. um.... nope, not really a whole lot wrong with it. you can play just about any style of music with it, it has a total of 6 knobs, 4 of which are for tone, and you can do whatever u want!

The construction was good, everything was nice. the only downfall is that if theres a chip in it, the color under the paint is a yellowish color, and it's hard to cover up.

This is a great bass, from beginner up to expert, i recomend it for anyone. try one out!
